>>The administration tried to correct the media and prevent them from spreading Joe Wilson's propaganda as truth, and look where it got Karl Rove...<<
Everything is O.K. as long as he did not break the law. Nothing has actually happened to him.
If we all believe that Karl Rove is an example of the right thing to do then, the Koran story should have been corrected before being printed. Newsweek was supposed to be aware of the implications of the story before they printed it and I would think the same would be expected of those in the military/government that were asked to verify the story.
Should people not do the right thing because they are afraid of the consequences?
Different day, different ground rules:

Wilson revealed (Keith Olbermann)
In his ‘story guidance’ to Matthew Cooper of Time, Rove did more damage to your safety than the most thumb-sucking liberal or guard at Abu Ghraib. He destroyed an intelligence asset like Valerie Plame merely to deflect criticism of a politician. We have all the damned politicians, of every stripe, that we need. The best of them isn’t worth half a Valerie Plame. And if the particular politician for whom Rove was deflecting, President Bush, is more than just all hat and no cattle on terrorism, he needs to banish Rove — and loudly.
