11. Russert was a potential witness to a federal crime.
That's a slightly different issue than protecting a whistleblower source. If the media refuses to disclose those involved in criminal actions, in order to protect the actors, well, I'd say that's a fairly big problem.

...and as far as Novak goes, he should be quiet because of the 5th amendment, not the 1st, IMNSHO.
