"What did the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel know, and when did it know it?"

Asks Elizabeth Price Foley.
The question relates to the Journal-Sentinel reporters� knowledge of a pre-dawn paramilitary-style raid of the home of Cindy Archer, a fo[r]mer aide to Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker and one of the architects of Wisconsin�s Act 10, which reformed that State�s public sector unions....

Someone had to tip the Journal-Sentinel off.  But under Wisconsin law, disclosure of a search warrant�s issuance, prior to its execution, is a Class I felony and could also violate the judge�s secrecy order of the John Doe investigation itself....

But regardless of Stein�s possible privilege, it seems evident that there is a serious and continuing leak in the Wisconsin John Doe investigation, and that it warrants an investigation of its own.

Indeed, if it hadn�t been for the courage of Eric O�Keefe of the Wisconsin Club for Growth�who has defied the ridiculous gag order imposed on John Doe targets�the only knowledge the public would have today about the investigation would come from these one-sided, pro-investigation leaks.
 Much more, including links at the link.
