Wasn't it always supposed to be shutting down about now (Sept/Oct timeframe)? Ergo, she'd be released about now regardless of whether she revealed source or not?

Miller said that she got the waiver from her source but considered it to be invalid because she thought it wasn't given freely. And you mean to tell me that the waiver of confidentiality couldn't be negotiated in less than three months? I've seen multibillion dollar deals negotiated in sooner time than that. So what's changed in three months? Nothing. Something else is going on, the importance of which is still unclear.
