Over the weekend an intriguing mystery about Andrea Mitchell surfaced. On Friday, Matt Apuzzo reported:
A federal judge said Friday that he likely would allow NBC News reporter Andrea Mitchell's notes to be used in the CIA leak trial, setting up another potential fight between journalists and the court in the case.
Mitchell's notes on her conversation with former White House aide "Scooter" Libby have been under subpoena for nearly a year, but U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton had ruled that, because Mitchell was unlikely to testify at trial, her notes would not be released.

More from today's trial testimony--Fleischer told Gregory--Hard to believe the nbc weasels are not all lying..
What's most annoying to me about this case is that Fitzgerald alleges that libby couldn't possibly be simply misremembering conversations with reporters. Yet, when these reporters are questioned about their conversations and notes, they appear to be suffering from alzheimers. Mitchell, in particular, in defending her redaction of her claim that alot of people knew about Plame being in the CIA, seems to be a complete fool and extremely unreliable. Her conversation with Imus had me laughing hysterically at the ineptitude of her deceptive backpedaling.
Its baffling that this case came to trial.
The case is preposterous. Everyone of the prosecution's chief witnesses misremembered things from these utterly unremarkable an scant conversations months before the investigation began.
