"...Associated Press story yesterday reported that Judy had coughed up the details of an earlier meeting with Mr. Libby..." - Woman of Mass Destruction by Maureen Dowd at the New York Times 10/22/05
Is this a snarky double-entendre from MoDo implying an intimate relationship between Scooter Libby and Judy Miller? Sure sounds like it
Do we know this?
No. The CIA has never confirmed that she was. There are claims that she was and that she was outed by a spy a long time ago, but nothing verifiable. Others assume that there wouldn't be an investigation if she wasn't- but that's not true as an investigation is required any time the press claims to have the identity of CIA personnel regardless of whether they hit paydirt or not. If investigations only occured if an actual covert operative is involved then it would be a simple matter to identify agents by narrowing the field of possible spooks- just "out" every possible agent and wait and see if there is a court date...
Investigate Kristof, too. He broke the Wilson story with unsourced lies from Wilson and Plame which were never corrected even after the SSCI said these were lies.
In fact, investigate everyone on the payroll but the guy who writes the crossword puzzle as far as I'm concerned.
