Faux News: Woodward Skewered by Bush Administration Opponents

Woodward Skewered by Bush Administration Opponents

WASHINGTON — One day after Washington Post editor Bob Woodward revealed he was told a CIA operative's name weeks before Vice President's Dick Cheney's former chief of staff revealed it to a New York Times reporter, the special prosecutor in the CIA leak case said he isn't changing tack.

...

Critics suggested Thursday that Woodward has become too cozy with sources, "a creature of access" as one put it. Colleagues at The Washington Post added that "people feel let down" by what happened.

...

Woodward has accepted the criticism that he should have told his editors sooner, but not the complaints of critics who are irritated that he challenged the notion of a massive administration conspiracy to punish Wilson.

On that point, Woodward told FOX News on Thursday: "People want reporters to use information as a political weapon. I won't do that. I'm just trying to find out what happened, and report it as accurately as possible."
