ABCNEWS TELLS WHITE HOUSE OF 'INDICTMENT' Tue Oct 25 2005 19:08:02 ET

"We have double sourced that the vice president's chief of staff has been indicted," a reporter for ABCNEWS claimed to a White House press spokesman this afternoon.

The White House refused to comment on the claim. The network said they didn't need comment, they were preparing to run with the development on this evening's network news broadcast, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

ABCNEWS claimed to the White House that it had double sourced how an indictment against vice presidential chief of staff I. Lewis Libby was set.

A senior White House source quickly determined ABC was bluffing; the report did not run on the East coast feed of the program.

UPDATE

ABC NEWS spokesman Jeff Schneider tells the DRUDGE REPORT: "There is nothing at all true about us having double sourced anything" regarding indictments.

More from Drudge:

CBS’ JOHN ROBERTS: Lawyers familiar with the case think Wednesday is when special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald will make known his decision, and that there will be indictments. Supporters say Rove and the vice president’s chief of staff, Scooter Libby, are in legal jeopardy...

Another update from Drudge:

Indictments in CIA leak case ‘about to be handed down’

Is'nt it illegal to have a leak about an illegal leak from the man prosecuting the illegal leakers?

Looks like it.

Did you just hear that on Hardball? Kristina said that we "know" that Cheney surpressed Wilson's truthful report in order to go to war.

Here is to hoping that it is Wilson and Plame to be indicted.

That would be beautiful. I always thought Wilson leaked his wife's name. He's on the take at any rate.

Quick. Name a chief of staff to any vice president other than Scooter Libby.

John Podesta!

Of course, that's because my name is piasa, and I'm a Freepaholic

I agree with you. I've noticed a problem with Bush's communication strategy for months (had feared it was related to this case). Everytime I said something on this board, I was called a troll.

I want the President to have a great 3 years.

Oh yes, Wilson is the pillar of integrity. So was his wife who trapsed around the social scene of D.C., everyone knew who she was and what she did for a living. It's hard to believe this has gotten has far as it has.
