Are they sacrificing Libby to protect Cheney? Or Rove? Was Fitz a Bushco agent chosen to put on a good show but ultimately contain the damage? How could he have investigated so long and so much, yet only come up with one medium-small fish? Why wasn't Novak charged? Or Rove? Was Cheney ever interrogated under oath? Was Bush? Can there be any further prosecutions as the result of this trial? I’m trying to figure out Bushco’s game plan for this trial.

yet only come up with one medium-small fish?

Can there be any further prosecutions as the result of this trial?

With so many political reporters and pundits knee deep in this particular pile, ethical problems abound. I don't really mind Dickerson's approach, at least as far as the linked article goes. As long as he's upfront about his role and he's writing from a personal perspective, I'm ok with it. Hard to say, but that’s a question for a lot of news organizations.
