What media bias? – Normally, yet another inaccurate piece about Joe Wilson’s fabled trip to Niger wouldn’t catch my attention, except this time the sloppy scribe is Dean Nicholas Lemann, the head of Columbia’s Journalism School. (More from Mark Steyn).

WASHINGTON - Top White House officials tried to blame vice presidential aide "Scooter" Libby for the 2003 leak of a CIA operative's identity to protect President Bush's political strategist, Karl Rove, Libby's defense attorney said Tuesday as the aide's perjury trial began.
...
When the leak investigation was begun, White House officials publicly cleared Rove of wrongdoing but stopped short of doing so for Libby. Libby, who had been asked to counter Wilson's criticisms, felt betrayed and sought out his boss, Vice President Dick Cheney, lawyer Theodore Wells said.

"They're trying to set me up. They want me to be the sacrificial lamb," Wells said, recalling Libby's end of the conversation. "I will not be sacrificed so Karl Rove can be protected."


Wheeee!!! And this is just Day One!

"He HADN'T stopped Fitzmas from coming!
IT CAME!
Somehow or other, it came just the same!"
