As I've been saying for months, regardless of whether Walsh has a confidentiality agreement (and we've known for several weeks he does not) it seems clear to me he's holding out for immunity from civil penalties - i.e. a slander lawsuit if he makes untrue statements.
Walsh sees that the Herald is facing a slander suit for making unsubstantiated statements, and assuming all Walsh has himself are unsubstantiated statements, he knows the same thing will happen to him.
I think the media's only just beginning to come to this same realization, reading the big bold print between the lines of Goodell and Kraft's statements.
Seeing as we're dealing with someone proven to have lied about their own background, the Patriots would have to be crazy to give him such immunity. Why would anyone want to give someone the ability to lie without concern for the consequences?
If he's got proof he doesn't need immunity. So its clear he's got no proof.
