Not Quite Out The Door Yet

Chelsea Manning is among Obama's pardons and commutations, though she won't be released until May.

The commutation gives Judith Miller the chance to... be Judith Miller. Tweeting—

"Obama commutes sentence of Chelsea Manning. How many people died because of manning' leak?"

Scott Lemieux—

As far as I can tell, there is no evidence that the materials Manning leaked led to the death of anyone. The same, however, most certainly cannot be said for the senseless war Miller helped bring about by dutifully transcribing whatever fallacious Bush administration propaganda came down the pike.
