This is eerily similar to the plot of the movie "Nothing but the truth" starring Kate Beckinsale as a reporter outing a C.I.A. agent. In the movie the reporter outs a C.I.A. operative and is then prosecuted for not revealing her source. If I understand correctly in this case the situation is even worse, the source of the leak is known and been prosecuted and the reporter has been asked to testify in his trial, though I guess the reporter never breached the law.
