...revealed the identity of any confidential sources to his publisher (or anyone else). He also believes that the manuscript, like his notes, should be privileged. Arguing that the book is simply a red herring, Eugene Scheiman, one of his lawyers, insisted: "Authors have First Amendment rights.

Bok sees problems in journalism too. Reporters Bernstein and Woodward, she says, seemed untroubled by "the whole fabric of deception" they used to uncover the Watergate scandal. Those lies, she maintains, were not clearly necessary and may encourage other reporters to use such tactics routinely...
