‹ chat statusIsn’t “Scooter” Libby’s defense ironic? He sure does seem to have a poor memory, not being able to tell his boss (VP Cheney) from Tim Russert. It’s so weird, because I confuse those two people all the time!
Weirder still is that Libby is on trial for using the press to defaming a critic and betraying a CIA worker (and thereby endangering operatives’ lives).
Yet his lawyers say that Libby can’t get a fair trial – because the media has spread the story and soiled his name and image.
Huh.
(PS: the media does have that power to create and destroy, and one cannot overemphasize the importance of responsible reporting by the media)
