NYT Characterizes CIA Leak Case as ‘Distraction’
I understood outing a CIA agent as being tantamount to treason. At minimum, it is a felony. But the New York Times doesn’t see it that way. It’s merely a “distraction.”
The Wilson leak was an embarrassing distraction for President Bush and Mr. Cheney, whose role in the episode has remained a mystery that critics hoped would be clarified with the release of F.B.I. interview materials.
It sounds like the piece was authored by Alberto “Quaint” Gonzlaes.
