WASHINGTON - Lawyers for a scientist investigated in the 2001 anthrax killings have questioned at least two journalists and are subpoenaeing other reporters, seeking the identities of their confidential government sources.

Through a lawsuit, Steven Hatfill is trying to track down suspected leakers at the FBI and the Justice Department who made Hatfill the focus of news coverage regarding anthrax-laced letters mailed to members of the press and to two United States senators.

Hatfill's lawsuit alleges violations of the Privacy Act and his constitutional rights to due process and free speech.

Newsweek magazine reporter Michael Isikoff and ABC correspondent Brian Ross both underwent questioning by lawyers for Hatfill in recent weeks, and both refused to identify their confidential sources.
