I must say that I am enjoying the Novak meltdown. First, he storms off (well, strolls off) the CNN set after uttering an expletive with very little if any provocation, then this:

The whole deal on CNN yesterday I think was staged. The moderator claims he was going to ask Novak about the TraitorGate scandal just before Novak walked off, and this does appear to be the case given that the "Who's Who" book -- one of Novak's possible sources for Plame's maiden name -- was reportedly sitting on the desk when Novak walked away . Perhaps CNN did all this to make it look tough (i.e., "we were finally going to ask Novak a hard-hitting question about the Plame matter before he walked off the set."). I've long thought that it was outrageous that Novak is still on CNN, given his direct involvement in outing a CIA operative. Hopefully we are seeing the beginning of the end of his career.
But it does appear that Novak is melting down, and I hope it is because he's getting a lot of pressure from Fitzgerald and his team on the Plame TreasonGate scandal.
