- Julie Hilden. "When Is Nonviolent Civil Disobedience Justified? The Case of Judith Miller". July 19th, 2005 - "Miller's view of the First Amendment is reasonable - and, in my opinion, correct. She believes - and her attorneys have argued - that the press is not truly free, as the Constitution guarantees it must be, unless reporters can protect their confidential sources from subpoenas, and court orders, that would reveal their identity."
