Time Magazine Reporter Testifies in CIA Leak Case

HeadlineNov 29, 2005

This update on the CIA leak case–the Washington Post is reporting Karl Rove’s defense team is hoping the testimony of a reporter from Time Magazine might help Rove escape indictment. On Sunday Time revealed that its reporter Viveca Novak had agreed to testify about a conversation she had last year with Rove’s attorney Robert Luskin. A person familiar with the investigation told the Washington Post that Luskin cited his conversations with Novak in persuading Special Prosecutor Fitzgerald not to indict Rove in late October. So far Vice President Dick Cheney’s former chief of staff Lewis Scooter Libby is the only administration to be indicted over the outing of Valerie Plame’s identity as an undercover CIA operative.
