So Novak still hasn't revealed his primary source but it's suspected
to be Richard Armitage, and inadvertently.

My take on the whole thing:

Plame was confirmed as CIA by Rove in an effort to kill the Joe Wilson
story.  Basically he was telling the press, "hey, stop talking about
Wilson because you'll just embarrass yourself: he's anti-war and was
sent there on a boondoggle by his wife who's CIA".

Despite the fact that there's various logic problems with that (he was
sent before the war, he had impeccable credentials to go, etc) it
looks like the administration was attempting to kill the story rather
than punish Wilson.  That is, her outing wasn't a leak.

That having been said, Libby sounds like he went too far once the
information was out, which explains his indictment, and you certainly
don't hear any prosecute-the-journalists mumbo jumbo about Ms. Plame's
outing.
