The Internet vs. Karl Rove Things heated up over the Independence Day weekend regarding Karl Rove’s involvement with the leaking of a secret CIA agent’s identity. The problem is that the mainstream media is NOT touching the Rove angle with a proverbial 10 foot pole. Although there is clearly something going on here, the big shots of big media are treating Rove like he’s the most feared man in the country. It appears that the only way this story is going to stay alive is if the blogosphere keeps it alive. For weeks we’ve been hearing about Time Magazine’s Matthew Cooper and The New York Times’ Judith Miller’s failure to cooperate with federal investigators and name the source of the leak of the secret CIA agent. The mainstream media likes this story because it involves two brave souls standing up for journalistic integrity. Never mind that these two never published any stories about the secret agent, but rather the agent was outed by none other than super conservative columnist Robert Novak. While Cooper and Miller face up to 18 months in jail, oddly enough Novak has been left alone. Why is that? googlezon.blogspot.com
