CIA Chief Slams NY Times Leak on Wiretaps

CIA head Porter Goss today said that the damage done by the leak to the NY Times of the U.S. phonetapping of Al Qaeda members "has been very severe to our capabilities..."

If a U.S. citizen can be convicted for undermining U.S. national security interests, I wonder if they could also hold the NY Times responsible by either fines or convictions. Hey - they ran Arthur Andersen out of business without even convicting the firm.
