Great roundup of the events. Thanks for helping to encapsulate the pre-trial. While this is a military case, and therefore subject to different rules than our civilian court, Manning’s actions and the subsequent trial provide an intense theater for our conversation about First Amendment Rights. Given the increasing role of bloggers as activist journalists concurrent with growing impediments to Constitutionally granted civil liberties, how do you see this playing out – say in the next 10 years?
