Bloggers get press seats at Scooter Libby trial
For the first time in a federal court, two of the seats set aside for media will be reserved for bloggers next week when I. Lewis "Scooter" Libbey, Vice President Cheney's former chief of staff, goes to trial on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice opens next week.
After two years of negotiations with judicial officials across the country, the Media Bloggers Association, a nonpartisan group with about 1,000 members working to extend the powers of the press to bloggers, has won credentials to rotate among his members.
