in PLAME-gate....

another area that i'm really not as interested in as i could, or should be i guess. there's no doubt in my mind rove is behind it all. why it's taking such a circuitous route to attaining that conclusion is beyond me.

Both the WP and the NYT report on a memo from NYT Executive Editor Bill Keller to his staff. The WP runs the headline, "A Split Between The Times & Miller" and emphasizes that Bill Keller accused Judith Miller of misleading the newspaper's Washington bureau chief. In covering itself, the NYT runs the headline "Times Editor Expresses Regrets Over Handling of Leak Case," noting that Keller wished he had "sat her down for a thorough debriefing." Miller misled the Times, Keller said, in her response when she was asked if she was one of the Washington journalists told that Valerie Plame worked for the CIA. The WP calls the memo "the first public split between Miller and the management."

the obligatory blub about it in today's papers notes that there's a riff between the nytimes and judith miller. frankly at this point, i don't care one way or another. come '08, and things will undoubtedly change. whether they change for the better or not is still the million dollar question. got an answer?

well.

DUH.
