Would anyone in the media go to jail to protect Colin Powell?

Towards the last few years that Powell was in the Administration, the media too a decided "liking" to him, after basically portraying him as an "house slave" and Condi Rice as an "Aunt Jemima"....

I am thinking that the change just may have occured around the time that all of this was getting started...

SO, obviously the media would/will/is covering for Powell, where they wouldn't for Rove or Libby.

I think so, since he shared many of the liberal views, and was a prolific leaker according to most.

IMO, he is the ONLY person who has been in this administration that they WOULD go to jail for.

No.

No one in the media would go to jail to protect any Republican. The information had to come from someone the MSM likes - either a fellow reporter, a dem CIA agent, or a dem who's still in the administration.

Hell would freeze over before any liberal would go to jail for a Republican - they would expose the guy themselves if he was one of us.

I think Powell is the person who leaked to Novak. Since Miller never wrote an article about this, I'm really curious to find out why Fitgerald is interested in her. At any rate there is nothing to suggest she is protecting the same source Cooper was protecting. She might be sitting in jail to protect wilson or Plame for all we know.
