JUDY WON'T BE BACK AT THE TIMES

The NYT public editor suggests that Judith Miller won't be coming back:

What does the future hold for Ms. Miller? She told me Thursday that she hopes to return to the paper after taking some time off. Mr. Sulzberger offered this measured response: "She and I have acknowledged that there are new limits on what she can do next." It seems to me that whatever the limits put on her, the problems facing her inside and outside the newsroom will make it difficult for her to return to the paper as a reporter.

Frankly, if the Times accepts her as a reporter again, it will undermine its own credibility so badly as to make it "difficult" to ever recover the trust of its readers.
