Cooper evidently was prepared to go to jail rather than reveal his source. According to the Washington Post, "told Reuters that he would rather Time not turn over his notes but acknowledged that the magazine had its own obligations to consider."
Is it not a little odd that Cooper is prepared to disobey a federal court, but not his own employer? If the principle is worth serving time for, might it not also be worth losing his job?

That's not how I read this. I don't think Cooper is giving up his notes because his employer told him too. I think Time is turning over his notes, which they have, and he is expressing disappointment with that.
Maybe he could go steal the notes back from Time, but that would be a bit much.
