Daniel Ellsberg, who leaked the Pentagon Papers to the NYTimes back when, likened the present administration's use of outing Plame to intimidate others to his own treatment: "By trying to punish him and his wife, they're trying to intimidate those who might be thinking about coming forward," comparing it to the episode when the White House Plumbers broke into his psychiatrists' office to find something on him.
Which brings me to reason number 4: Journalists aren't coming forward because they all (all? really? every last one?) are intimidated.
