Time
Time reporter
Viveca Novak says she told
Robert D. Luskin, Karl Rove's lawyer, in early 2004 that Rove had leaked information to
Matthew Cooper about
Valerie Plame. "I hadn't intended to tip Luskin off to anything," she writes. "I was supposed to be the information gatherer." Novak didn't initially tell her bosses that she may have tipped off Rove's lawyer or that special prosecutor
Patrick Fitzgerald was interested in the details of her conversation with Luskin. Now she's on a leave of absence while Time contemplates her future at the magazine. (Related
