A Plumbing Lesson -- How To Plug Leaks

The Danes know how to plug leaks. Too bad our government isn't willing to do the same.

COPENHAGEN, Nov 13, 2006 (AFP) - Two Danish journalists went on trial on Monday for publishing a secret intelligence report casting doubt on the existence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq before the US-led invasion. It is the first time in the history of modern Denmark -- an ardent champion of freedom of expression -- that journalists have been charged with divulging state secrets. They risk up to two years in prison if found guilty. The verdict is expected at the end of November or early December.
