Excerpted from Fox News: Though the recent New York Times stories have garnered the most attention, lawmakers have suggested an Associated Press story last month about an Al Qaeda plot to detonate an explosive device aboard a U.S.-bound flight was perhaps more damaging.

“It certainly jeopardizes our ability to relate to other countries, for other countries to help us,” Feinstein said on “Fox News Sunday.” “The leak really did endanger sources and methods. And the leak, I think, has to be prosecuted.”

Feinstein said Thursday her understanding after meeting with Muller and Clapper is that a U.S. attorney based in Washington also is looking into the leaks.
