Novak defines treason (Andrea Chamblee - 1/25/2007 6:21:28 PM)
Does anyone listen to him any more? WaPo readers
ripped him a new one today. He promoted the "Swiftboat" book without saying his son was the publisher. Also, he's
leaked secret info before.
"Former Nixon campaign aide Herbert Porter testified that he leaked to Novak "on plain bond" Democratic presidential campaign memos obtained in the Watergate break-in, while Reagan budget director David Stockman found the fiscally conservative columnist a willing ally in the effort to win supporters for supply-side economics. In his memoir, Stockman wrote that he considered Novak's column his "billboard" while he was in the White House."
