Still, it's no way to act ... and being as senior as he is on CNN, there must have been a lot of other ways he could have gotten around it.

I had to be patient and wait my turn. Must be a lot of people viewing that! I have seen Novak appear much more riled up than that about lots of stuff. My vote is that he was looking for a way OUT OF THERE...ASAP and he created one, very poorly in my opinion. I've seen him arguing something and the spit flying. He hadn't even broke a sweat before he felt it was necessary to leave the presence of such rude and inappropriate people!

Guess Who: "No Iraqi connection" (4.00 / 2)

WASHINGTON Oct. 15, 2001 -- Lord Robertson, NATO's secretary general, on his visit to Washington last week privately and individually briefed U.S. senators he has known since his days as British defense minister during the Kosovo war. He told them there is no evidence -- "not a scintilla," as quoted by one senator -- linking Iraq with the Sept. 11 attack on America.

That confirms what intelligence sources have told me. The relentless investigation of the terrorist assault has developed massive evidence pointing to Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda organization. No comparable links to Iraq have been found. The Iraqi connection, say these sources, is a matter of speculation. If nothing has been uncovered now, it is unlikely there ever will be compelling proof.

<snip>

While U.S. officials declined to rule out an Iraqi role on Sept. 11, the British have come close to doing so. "I am not aware of any evidence pointing to Iraq's complicity in those outrages," Robin Cook, leader of the House of Commons and former foreign secretary, said Oct. 4.

<snip>

"I don't see Iraq being able to do high quality production on a large scale of bio-weapons," former UN arms inspector Scott Ritter told Fox News Network last Tuesday. Larry Johnson, former State Department deputy director of counter-terrorism, on Thursday told CNN that the U.S. since 1990 has destroyed Iraq's chemical and biological weapons and Saddam has "not built back up to the levels he had prior to the Gulf War."

<snip>

The real reason why hawks inside and outside the government want to assault Iraq is the nature of Saddam Hussein's regime: tyrannical, anti-democratic, brutal to its own citizens, menacing to its neighbors, intransigent against Israel's existence. President Bush would be acting against Saddam not as part of a war against terror but as a superpower avenger against governments of the world that fail to meet minimum standards of human decency.

That role would isolate the United States as lone-ranger global protector, accompanied occasionally by Israel. In his press conference last Thursday night, Bush called Saddam an "evil man," adding: "We're watching him very carefully." Sober officials inside the administration believe the president should do no more than watch Iraq, unless and until it is clearly implicated in the murderous events of Sept. 11.

Interesting that they suspend him for that, and not for outing a CIA agent (and all the lying he's been doing about it).

And, Susan, I have an article for you... sort of an informational/background sort of thing. Ryan Lizza of the New Republic details who many of the 'sources close to the White House" and such are. It's interesting and I thought it might come in handy for you when you are doing your news reports. It doesn't appear to need registration for viewing.

suspending him (none / 0)

The FCC is using every opportunity to get into people's (that word that Novak used) about profanity on the radio or tv.

I think the reason CNN suspended him is to avoid FCC fines by taking action against the person who cursed (and during prime time).

You used to be able to, say in radio, play songs after 11 pm that had cursing in them, but now programmers are warned about doing that, even, because the rules are still unclear on that issue.

Not unhinged (4.00 / 4)

I've watched the footage at Media Matters, at C&L, read the transcript, and I do think that Carville got to him when Novak was trying to act as if the nutjob from Oklahoma was part of the reality-based community...and Carville was giving it to Novak that he's a pasty for the far right wing.

but Novak sat there for a minute after he said bullshit, then got up...I think someone spoke to him in his earphone and told him to leave the set, because, if you notice, Carville and the host acted like nothing was happening.

If they weren't aware, maybe hearing the same thing, do you think they would have had a non-reaction to Novak's leaving?

...and it is very convenient that he gets booted off the set when he's about to get asked about Plame...I don't think he said it intentionally, though...it sounded too spontaneous.

but maybe he was a little off his game knowing it was coming up and getting ribbed before about acting to appease the far right wingers.

that's my take, anyway.

And Novak sounds and looks like he's drunk or on something. Slurring his words together like a huge run-on sentence, and he doesn't seem to be focusing his eyes when he speaks, and he looks craggier than usual. Seriously unhinged. The whole thing is bizarre. Let's hope that this craziness is indicative of some potential significance in the Plame investigation, as others here have posted.

Alright folks. It is time we flex our consumer muscle and hammer at whiny little Novak. PLease join me in writing and calling CNN to demand they permanently fire Novak as a disgrace to CNN, an insult to CNN viewers and a traitor to America. Here is my letter to CNN tonight:

That's it. I demand you fire Novak. I used to be an avid CNN junkie, but Novak's treasonous outing of a CIA operative disgusted me so much I switched almost exclusively to New World International. With the demise of NWI, I was trying CNN again, figuring it was the next best thing to NWI. But what do I see mere days into my trying CNN again? The same old traitor Novak actually CURSING on air then storming off like a spoiled child.
Who is this guy? Who does he think he is? Does he have no respect for America or for CNN viewers? Does CNN think so little of America that it has a foul mouthed, immature traitor as one of its major commentators?
This is it. Even without NWI I cannot stand to watch CNN as long as Novak is on. Fire the sleaze bag or count me out permanently from your viewership.

Who's Who in America, of course! ... Mystery Pollster caught it first. ... Perhaps Henry, who says he told Novak he was going to ask about the Plame case, wanted to clear up the Anne Kornblut question: whether Novak really found out Plame's maiden name from the book. (Highly unlikely, sez kf). ... Novak escaped just in time. ... P.S.: Finally CNN's Jonathan Klein produces some "appointment television"! 7:19 P.M. link ...

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2005/08/20050804-2.html

Is this the segment from his press conf. today that you're thinking of? We're trying to get the video but I want to be sure this is the right section ... i only heard part of it, and it sounds like you heard more:

PRESIDENT BUSH: First, let me say that we mourn the loss of every fallen troop. And the community outside of Cleveland, Brook Park, Ohio, suffered mightily over the last couple of days. It's -- the people of Brook Park and the family members of those who lost their life, I hope they can take comfort in the fact that millions of their fellow citizens pray for them. I hope they also take comfort in the understanding that the sacrifice was made in a noble cause.

We're laying the foundation of peace for generations to come. We're defeating the terrorists in a place like Iraq so we don't have to face them here at home. And, as well, we're spreading democracy and freedom to parts of the world that are desperate for democracy and freedom.

The comments by the number two man of al Qaeda make it clear that Iraq is a part of this war on terror, and we're at war. In other words, he's saying, leave. As I have told the American people, one, that people like Zawahiri have an ideology that is dark, dim, backwards; they don't trust -- they don't appreciate women; if you don't agree to their narrow view of a religion you'll be whipped in the public square. That's their view, and they have tactics to help spread that view. In other words, they've got goals. They want to spread that point of view throughout the world, starting in the broader Middle East. And part of their goal is to drive us out of the broader Middle East, precisely what Zawahiri said. In other words, he's threatening.

They have come up against a nation that, one, will defend itself. Zawahiri is a part of that team that attacked us on September the 11th, 2001. He was part of an al Qaeda group that said, well, we'll try to achieve our objective in attacking America. They must not have understood the nature of our country. I vowed then that we would stay on the offense against these people. We owe it to the American people, and other freedom-loving countries, to bring these killers to justice. And that's what they are: they're terrorists, and they're killers. And they will kill innocent people trying to get us to withdraw from the world, so they can impose their dark vision on the world. That's what they're trying to do. And the comments today by Mr. Zawahiri absolutely reinforce what I've just told you.

We will stay the course, we will complete the job in Iraq. And the job is this: We'll help the Iraqis develop a democracy. They're writing -- in the process of writing a constitution, which will be ratified in October, and then they will elect a permanent government. It's also important for our citizens to understand that progress has been made, particularly when eight-plus million people got to vote in the face of Zawahiri and Sarawak and these killers.

We're also training Iraqis. Our troops will come home as soon as possible. "As soon as possible" means when those Iraqis are prepared to fight. As Iraq stands up, our coalition will stand down.

The Iraqis want to live in a free society. Zawahiri doesn't want them to live in a free society. And that's the clash of ideologies -- freedom versus tyranny. We have had these kinds of clashes before, and we have prevailed. We have prevailed because we're right; we have prevailed because we adhere to a hopeful philosophy; and we have prevailed because we would not falter.

Go ahead and ask --

Q Also the question is for President Bush. Did you talk about the necessity and the importance of the creation of international community that can verify the application of the justice and peace law, and also its implementation?

PRESIDENT BUSH: We did talk about human rights. I talked about human rights. The Secretary of State Arrow -- (laughter) -- talked about human rights. The President assured us -- a couple of points that are important to understand -- one, that there is an independent judiciary, in other words, independent from government, that will adjudicate these disputes; secondly, that there is a new prosecutor reporting to the independent judiciary that will follow through on the cases; and, thirdly, that he is committed to seeing to it as best as possible that progress be made on these cases.

And we talked about specific cases. And I listened intently and believe that he is interested in following through on these cases, so that the world will hear loud and clear that Colombia is a nation of law and human rights and human dignity.

PRESIDENT URIBE: (Question answered in Spanish.)

PRESIDENT BUSH: You le compendia. Vamps a comer. (Laughter.) I told him I understood him. We're going to go eat. Thank you very much. Appreciate you. Gracias.

Q What's on the menu? What's on the menu?

PRESIDENT BUSH: Carne.

Q Carne.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Necesito preguntar a mi esposa. I've been thinking about business; she's been thinking about the food.
