Cooper, it turns out, never spoke to his confidential source that day, said Robert D. Luskin, a lawyer for the source, who is now known to be Karl Rove, the senior White House political adviser.
The development was actually the product of a frenzied series of phone calls initiated that morning by a lawyer for Mr. Cooper and involving Mr. Luskin and the special prosecutor in the case, Patrick J. Fitzgerald.
So again, why should we trust Big Media players, especially when they make themselves part of the story?
Of course, from the info Josh Marshall supplies, we probably shouldn’t take anything Rove attorney Robert Luskin says as gospel truth, or close to it. I mean, a lawyer who takes part of his fees in a money laundering case in gold bars is probably the type to deal from the bottom of the deck, verbally or otherwise.
