32. Any evidence of Judith Miller taking directions directly from a gov't official?

Ahmad Chalabi may have been a tool of Rumsfield, Cheney etc but he was not a gov't employee as far as I know. I can't equate what Miller did with an all out organized propaganda program.

BTW - please don't put words in my mouth or tell me what I want. I respect your opinion but that is rude.
