Journalists, Take A Leak!

Viveca Novak of Time magazine has been subpoenaed to the grand jury investigating the leak of the indentity of CIA operative Valerie Plame. Viveca Novak is not, by the way, related to Robert Novak.

Special Counsel Fitzgerald is interested in Novak's testimony about conversations she had with Karl Rove's lawyer, Robert Luskin, beginning in May, 2004.

Novak, part of a team tracking the CIA case for Time, has written or contributed to articles quoting Luskin that characterized the nature of what was said between Rove and Matthew Cooper, the first Time reporter who testified in the case in July.

This is a sign that Fitzgerald is still considering charges against Karl Rove (aka Turd Blossom).

Viveca Novak appears on "Hardball with Chris Matthews" on MSNBC tonight at 6:00 PM (CDT).

If this is (fair & balanced) joyful anticipation, so be it.
