Libby Trial: Meet The Prosecution

“If It’s Wednesday, It’s ‘Meet Tim Russert‘ at the CIA leak trial,” ABCNews.com’s subhead says.

“All expectations are that NBC’s Tim Russert will be on the stand this afternoon, and the media room is filling up more rapidly than usual,” ScooterLibbyTrial.com says.

The AP: “Defense attorneys, working to reveal inconsistencies in government witnesses, often show quotes, notes or other documents on a courtroom big-screen television and ask witnesses to explain discrepancies. It’s a technique Russert has made famous on ‘Meet the Press’ and one he may find himself facing Wednesday.”

CNN.com: “Libby’s defense plans to question the credibility of Russert and has asked the prosecutor for notes relating to any leniency he received for his testimony.”
