The U.S. Supreme Court has denied the appeal of a New York Times reporter who faces a possible prison term for refusing to reveal a confidential source. James Risen had asked the court to overturn a ruling forcing him to testify in the criminal trial of ex-CIA analyst Jeffrey Sterling. Prosecutors say Sterling gave Risen information on the CIA’s role in disrupting Iran’s nuclear program. We’ll have more on the case later in the broadcast.
