The most likely explanation is that Novak asked some one who appointed Wilson. The source said Wilson's wife. Novak went to Who's Who and found out Wilson's wife was named Vallery Plame. Novak then called two other sources to confirm that fact. Those two sources were Rove and Bill Harlow.

The question is what did the sources confirm... That Plame was Wilson's wife or that Wilson's wife got Wilson the job or both. Novaks source can not be Libby. If it were novak would still be under a gag order.

The question is, will Novak actually reveal his primary source on tomorrow nights newscast?

He is either saving the scoop for Fox.. or he is not going to reveal the name. He has said several times he would not reveal a name of someone who had not given him permission to do so. He also says he does not have permission to reveal the primary sources name. That leads me to believe that he will not reveal the name tomorrow.

One supporting fact. Where would you reveal the name if you were going to reveal it in your own column .. which is your mains source of income or on Fox which is not? Who would you want to please with increased readership or viewers? I would think the papers that carry his column would be very ticked if he revealed this on Fox. Perhaps enough to cancel his column.

But we will soon know.
