It turns out Traitorgate isn’t about a felonious breach of National security after all; it is a plot to bring Novak down! Never mind that his source imperiled the lives of true patriots, and may have cost some of those their lives. Never mind that a career is ruined, Novak feels pressured. Oh my this is serious!

Sorry, would-be Woodwards and Bernsteins: "I'm not going to tell them who my original leak was. ... That'd be the end of my career. If you can't protect your sources, you're finished."
