The Shot Heard Around the World - Stonewalling Fails
The Veep Under Siege * Breaking News: Cheney to be Interviewed
Imaginary conversation. Cheney to Whittington: "I hope we'll still be friends". Don't bet on it. Strange, how efforts by the White House and VP's office to keep a lid on this story managed to do just the opposite. Another example of their arrogance and excessive concern about secrecy. Serves them right. Gloves are off and the media has smelled blood in the water. Howard Kurz in the Post: "Okay, other than the fact that the comics haven't had so much fun since President Bush choked on a pretzel. (Letterman: "We can't get Bin Laden, but we nailed a 78-year-old attorney.")."
According to Reuters "Cheney will be interviewed by Fox News at 2 p.m. (1900 GMT), White House press secretary Scott McClellan told reporters. The interview will not be aired live." Trust him to select a friendly news service. Think soft balls. Would that mean the end of it. Not likely.

Of course the interview won't be aired live. Even the blind squirrels over at Fox might find an acorn and ask a real question. Then where would poor Dick be?
