8. Dean speculated that Novak may have committed a crime.

There are limits on 1st Amendment freedoms, but it is a pretty high standard. I'm not sure how Dean thinks the prosecution would overcome that hurdle, but anything is possible in the Brave New Patriot Act world. Novak was told not to publish and did it anyway, that could be the jest of the prosecution, but who knows what the laws are on this sort of thing?

It could explain why Novak hasn't been called to testify, he is a subject of the investigation.
