From: "Mark" 

I have zero sympathy for either the Times or Miller -- they (the Times that
is, I'm not sure if she did) wanted, and pushed mercilessly for, the
investigation in the first place, when it came back to bite them they
suddenly changed their tune. She's no hero, and the MSM will not be
successful in portraying her as such.
