Rove's "demotion"

I guess they did know that Rove was still in trouble when he was "demoted."
A lawyer with knowledge of the case said that Mr. Rove had known for more than a month that he was likely to make another appearance before the grand jury, and that he had known since last fall that he would be subject to further questions from Mr. Fitzgerald before the prosecutor completed his inquiry.

The same article also says Fitzgerald "is expected to decide in the next two to three weeks" about charging Rove. So, waiting anxiously today may well be fruitless.

  • No way they didn't know. But isn't it (not so) amazing how no one in the MSM explores that angle.

  • There have been some mentions on the pundit shows, but since this is the first reporting of any kind that actually nailed down the fact that they knew.

    Previously it was just conjecture, so, to some degree, I applaud not printing it.

    And, yeah, nonspecific to this, the Plame case could have been mentioned more, but at the time, nothing had really broken against Rove since January.
