Truly interesting Hitchens review of Woodward's new book, and on leaks, Watergate, Plame, etc. This line really catches one's eye, "Counter-leaking against the C.I.A. has had the grotesque result of putting a reporter for this newspaper behind bars." That's a pretty startling contention that outting Plame was a right wing effort to push back against what they saw as leaking by the CIA about the dubiousness of the Niger docs.

Update: This makes some sense to me.
