Conservative Columnist Robert Novak Dies
Veteran journalist Robert Novak died this morning after battling brain cancer for the past year. He was 78.
Best known for his conservative political columns, syndicated around the country, and appearances on cable news, Novak was at the center of the Valerie Plame controversy after he outed her as the CIA agent married to Bush critic Joe Wilson.
In July 2008, Novak made headlines after running down a pedestrian while driving his black corvette. A week later, it was announced that doctors had discovered a brain tumor.
