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.
Developing...
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 presidents chief of staff, Scooter Libby, are in legal jeopardy...
Another update from Drudge:
Indictments in CIA leak case about to be handed down
"Hardball is reporting that Fitzgerald has indicted Libby, Cheney, Bush, and Free Republic."
Just for good measure throw in Zell Miller too...bawahahahhaha!!
Can you triple source that!
Is'nt it illegal to have a leak about an illegal leak from the man prosecuting the illegal leakers?
Thanks for the info : )
He was not in the Carter or Ford Administrations.
good one crawdad . lets not forget scooter rizuto . he was more than up to the task.
VanderEVIL is foaming at the mouth reminding all that 2,000 soldiers have been killed by this War of Choice. Click
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.
She'll get porked?!?!???
Can you double-source that?
CA....
That would be beautiful. I always thought Wilson leaked his wife's name. He's on the take at any rate.
John Podesta!
Of course, that's because my name is piasa, and I'm a Freepaholic
Yes and now we must boycott scooter pies!
Did you just hear her say that we "know" Cheney surpressed Wilson's report?
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.
Maybe it's someone on the "Commander in Chief" show tonight? /tin foil
Ouch, I've been here too long- didn't see the "vice" part.
wonder if the only one duped tonight was Drudge. 339 posted on 10/25/2005 7:48:04 PM EDT by StarFan
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.
OK, you also get an indictment.
Next!
