Who's the Real CIA Leaker? Tapes Tell the Story

Jason Ryan and Brian Ross Report:

A tape recording made by investigative reporter Bob Woodward tells the story of who provided him with the name of CIA agent Valerie Plame, and it's not Scooter Libby.

Libby is on trial for lying to a federal grand jury but not charged with the crime of divulging the name of a secret CIA operative.

The official who provided Plame's name to columnist Robert Novak was then Assistant Secretary of State Richard Armitage (pictured).

He also provided the name to Woodward during an interview that Woodward recorded on June 13, 2003.

The pertinent portion of the recorded interview is one minute long, and it was played for the jury in the Libby trial today with Armitage's expletives deleted. >>>cont
