"Lawyers for I. Lewis Libby, a former aide to Vice President Dick Cheney who faces charges of obstruction of justice, served subpoenas on Tuesday on The New York Times Co. and a former reporter for The Times, Judith Miller," begins a story set for Thursday's New York Times, RAW STORY has found.

"The subpoenas seek documents concerning the disclosure of the identity of an undercover CIA operative, Valerie Wilson," writes Adam Liptak. "Libby has been charged with lying to a grand jury about how he learned about Wilson's identity."

According to the Times, Time Magazine's Matthew Cooper and Tim Russert of NBC News also received subpoenas.

Although a spokeswoman for the Times states that the lawyers are still reviewing the subpoena, Miller's lawyer called it "entirely too broad."

"It's highly likely we'll be filing something with the court," Robert S. Bennett tells the Times.
