I don't know if the source also tried WaTimes or FNC or not, and I don't follow why Novak's never been served with a subpoena, either, so I agree there are gaps here that don't make much sense.

If you want to nail Novak to the wall, you've got to get the info from some other source. He's not testifying without getting immunity in exchange for waiving his 5th Amendment rights, even if you get past the 1st Amendment argument. If the prosecutor gets into an argument with a third party over a protection of sources privilege, the consequence of being overturned on appeal isn't that Novak walks free.
No idea why the media at issue don't include the Wash Times and FNC, although it could be because they find it cheaper to reprint RNC press releases than hire actual journalists.
