Is Woodward a media whore? Was he compelled

[babylonsister]

to make his involvement in Plamegate known or does he just relish the notoriety?

[marylanddem]

1. Probably a little of both. nt

[Jacobin]

2. He's a neo-con enabler

Read his gushing book praising Smirky and his love of conquering the Middle East.

And he loves attention.

This time, he's gonna get more attention than he bargained for....and the wrong kind

3. He says that one of three people went to Fitzgerald with the story.

Who would that have been? Card, Libby or the unnamed third "current or former" official?

[babylonsister]

5. KO just said a current or former admin official; why not

Powell or even Tenet? Maybe someone we can't even imagine is talking.

10. Well, we know that Libby is a "former"-but you are right, it could

even be Ari Fleischer.

7. I've always suspected that Woodward was an Operation Mockingbird operative

He comes from a Republican family known for their connections to the military intelligence. He's a Yale grad who was in the belonged to the secret society Book and Snake. The tell-tale signs are all there.


From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Woodward):


Woodward was born in Geneva, Illinois, the son of Alfred E. Woodward, a judge. He attended Yale University on a Navy Reserve Officer Training Corps scholarship, joining Book and Snake and graduating in 1965. Woodward served for five years as a communications officer in the United States Navy, his last year in Washington, D.C. including volunteer work for John Erlenborn, the Republican Congressman from the district in Wheaton, Illinois where he had been raised.

Woodward was discharged from the Navy in August 1970. He had applied to several law schools, but had also applied for a job as a reporter for the Washington Post. Harry Rosenfeld, the paper's metropolitan editor hired him on a two-week trial basis, a tryout which failed due to his complete lack of experience as a journalist. Still interested in becoming a reporter, he got a job with the Montgomery Sentinel. A year after his on-the-job training at the Sentinel, he left that paper and joined The Washington Post in August 1971.
