Judy Sings for the Senate Judiciary Committee

She isn't Garland, but Judy Miller is about to sing for the Senate Judiciary Committee's hearing taking place right now on a shield law protecting journalists.

Don't know if C-SPAN is broadcasting the committee hearing, but you can watch it online because it's being web cast with RealPlayer.

Here are the basics:

The hearing scheduled by the Senate Committee on the Judiciary on "Reporters’ Privilege Legislation: An Additional Investigation of Issues and Implications" for Wednesday, October 19, 2005 in Room 226 of the Senate Dirksen Office Building, will begin at 10:30 a.m. rather than the previously scheduled time of 9:30 a.m.

By order of the Chairman
