Judith Miller, then, no? But how much further disrepute does this bring upon her? It was already established that she took talking points from Chalabi and made Army personnel jump by threatening to report them to Rumsfeld. She was a Benador Associates speaker. She had a book whose sales were fueled by her hysterical Times WMD reportage - almost none of which panned out. She's allegedly a good friend of Pipes and authored a book with that loon Mylroie, with whom she reportedly remains friendly.
Yet none of this injured Miller professionally. Unless these 'certain favors' are of an exceptionally lurid nature, I can't see this going anywhere.
