Toni Locy for AP reports that Judge Walton has ruled that Team Libby gets to peek at drafts for an article by reporter Matthew Cooper, who wrote about his conversations with Libby. The judge also said "The New York Times might have to turn over drafts of articles and other information during Libby's trial if former Times reporter Judith Miller contradicts her previous statements about the case when she testifies as a government witness."
"The news organizations indicated they are not likely to appeal the ruling."
