Whodunnit??
According to the Guardian, it was Karl Rove. Listen here for details. (link via Atrios) Of course the real problem is that journalists aren’t going to to want to reveal their private sources. So in essence, this has turned into a game of chicken (as Tom Tomorrow put it). I can’t imagine this “game” will last long. Within a day or two the temptation to be the first to name names will be too great for any media outlet to resist. Plus, there are enough people out there that actually know the names that the media will find a way to reveal their sources without really revealing their sources. For those of you haven’t been following this closely, Kevin Drum has been all over this story.

I think you are right. If reporters don’t know how to leak a story than who does. I must say, it is a lot of fun watching the Bushies squirm.
