Whether journalists have the right to refuse to§testify in legal proceedings has been a contentious§issue in the United States. Over the past several§years, it became a hot topic as reporters were called§to testify before a federal grand jury and at trial§over who in the Bush Administration outed Valerie§Plame as a Central Intelligence Agency spy. While§reporters were forced to testify in I. Lewis§"Scooter" Libby trial, whether a federal law will be§enacted to protect journalists is still before§Congress. This monograph thoroughly discusses the§state of testimonial privilege for journalists in§both the state and federal court systems and before§Congress. It specifically compares and contrasts§Illinois'' Reporter''s Privilege Act with similar laws§in 31 states and the District of Columbia that grant§journalists some form of testimonial privilege. It§then analyzes how the Illinois courts have applied§the law and assesses what protection journalists have§in the state.
