http://rawstory.com/news/2005/FBI_seeks_interview_with_Times_reporters_0201.html

Two journalists for The New York Times are being sought for questioning by the FBI regarding stories they wrote about a pro-Israel lobbying group receiving classified information from a former Pentagon official, according to a story slated for Thursday's Times, RAW STORY has learned.

The bureau's actions are part of the "second round of investigation" regarding classified information passed from Pentagon analyst Larry Franklin to Steve Rosen and Keith Weissman from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). Franklin worked out of the Office of Special Plans reporting to Douglas Feith (More in Larisa's recent article for RAW STORY).

3. Uh-oh. Not again. I think Sulzberger...
better make up his mind whether he wants to put out a rag or a serious newspaper.

If he opts for the latter, better get a handle on things *real* fast.
