I doubt this if as Drudge is reporting, the NYT is about to unleash a hit piece on Rove. That would make them look worse than they already do.
Wouldn't this be fun? I've been watching Michael (Flush the Koran) Isikoff and Chrissy Matthews tonight posture and puff about Judith Miller.
I sure hope this is the case...not that I think it's very much of a threat or problem, anyway.
Rather than spill the beans, she'll wait it out in comfort and then cry victim.
If they really wanted her to talk, they'd put her in a real jail cell.
There is any number of reporters, pundits, and others, who have known about Plame all along, as numerous threads on this forum have demonstrated for near three years now.
There are multiple other sources who knew it as well.
There is so much more to this story than just "IF" somebody outed a covert CIA agent.
Appears that somebody somewhere and it had to be higher than Joe Wilson and his wife's pay grade believed they could protect Saddam.
A journalists would obviously seek to learn of all the accusations and who was making them and contact them before interviewing Karl Rove. Since Time Magazine has already released an email between Cooper and Rove, this should make it clear that Rove isn't the source, because Cooper was doing the questioning, and all Rove did was warn that Wilson is n ot credible, and he did so by pointing out that Wilson's Wife approved of the trip and she works at the CIA, there is no crime in that.
BUT who did Miller and Cooper interview before Rove? That is who they are protecting !!!!!!!!!!!!
