Arianna Huffington on the snakey Judy Miller (Take 2)

Arianna Huffington: Judy Miller Meets the Grand Jury: Take Two - Yahoo! News: "What a difference 11 days -- and a suddenly discovered set of notes -- can make.

After her first grand jury appearance, Judy Miller preened for the cameras triumphantly and talked about going to jail for her principles.

There were no such remarks after today’s appearance. No attacks on blanket waivers or calls for a federal shield law. No wistful longings for a hug from her dog and a meal with her husband. Indeed, exiting the courthouse after her testimony, neither Miller nor Bob Bennett had anything to say.

And I know you can’t tell a book -- or a $1.2 million book deal -- by its cover but, by all outward appearances, the hour Miller spent testifying this morning was not an easy one. On her way into the courthouse, decked out in a bright red blouse and oversized shades, Miller was all smiles, chatting easily with Bennett. Afterwards, she was decidedly less bubbly. Kind of like, oh, I don’t know, an Aspen tree clustered with other Aspens that have been hit by a hatchet and are starting to lose sap?"
