Novak: No Bush Administration Effort to Discredit Joe Wilson

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,203234,00.html

I tried looking for this story on the CNN and MSNBC websites as well, 
but none of them told it like this article does.  So either FoxNews is 
dressing up the story, or the other news organizations are dressing it 
down, or both.

Basically it comes across that Novak tricked the information out of the 
White House - Rove's comfirmation of Plame's identity seems more a slip 
of the tongue than a concerted effort to endanger her.  All in all it 
seems to me that the media attention, and the attacks on the credibility 
on the White House now seem like an extremely shoddy and dishonest 
political attack.  Novak comes out looking like a sleezeball if ever 
there was one, and all this talk of "protecting the 1st ammendment" 
comes across as pure hypocracy.
