Woodward apologizes for remaining silent, not for lying


Big Bush supporter has a strangely evolving story.
The abrupt revelation that Woodward has been sitting on information about the Plame controversy has reignited questions about his unique relationship with The Post while writing books with unparalleled access to high-level officials, and about why Woodward minimized the importance of the Fitzgerald probe in television and radio interviews while hiding his own involvement in the matter.

Woodward said he had passed along a tip about Plame to Post reporter Walter Pincus, who was writing about Wilson in June 2003, but Pincus has said he does not recall any such conversation.
Pincus was trying to get more information about that case and Woodward claims he told him but Pincus forgot!

On Oct 29th, 2005 I blogged about his strange TV appearance and polled to ask if Woodward was drunk.
