Bloggers can protect confidential sources just like "real" journalists.

"This was a huge win for the First Amendment and for journalists who publish online," said Lauren Gelman, associate director for Stanford's Center for Internet and Society, who filed a brief supporting the Electronic Frontier Foundation. "The court recognized that in the modern era, one way journalists publish information is through the Internet."

This is great! Now if I ever get a confidential source I promise to protect the hell out of them! I might even buy them lunch or a hooker too!

Oooh so exciting!
