U.S. ex-spy Plame and publisher lose memoir appeal

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A former CIA agent whose unmasking led to the conviction of former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney's top aide lost an appeal on Thursday to declassify parts of her memoir.

The second circuit federal appeals court ruled on Thursday that the agency had "demonstrated good reason" for wanting Plame's dates of service to remain classified.

Last week's release of an FBI interview summary of Dick Cheney's answers in the criminal investigation underscores why Fitzgerald felt that way. On 72 occasions, according to the 28-page FBI summary, Cheney equivocated to the FBI during his lengthy May 2004 interview, saying he could not be certain in his answers to questions about matters large and small in the Plame controversy. The Cheney interview reflects a team of prosecutors and FBI agents trying to find out whether the leaks of Plame's CIA identity ... Read Full Story

He could not recall?

A newly released transcript of a 2004 FBI interview of former Vice President Dick Cheney shows that he — according to his own words, anyway — had only fuzzy memories of a major incident that was then less than a year old. The transcript is replete with Cheney saying he Òcould not recall,Ó Òcould not specifically rememberÓ or Òhas no recollection.Ó Cheney was interviewed by FBI agents attempting to discover the source of the leak that outed Valerie Plame as a CIA agent. She is the wife of Joseph Wilson, a former ambassador who was assigned in 2002 by the CIA to investigate foreign ... Read Full Story

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Dick Cheney, then U.S. vice president, had harsh words for the CIA sending a spy's husband to Africa to see if Iraq was seeking nuclear material, according to an interview with the FBI released on Friday. Cheney was interviewed in 2004 as part of a probe into who leaked to a newspaper columnist the identity of CIA operative Valerie Plame, the wife of Joe Wilson who went on the trip to Niger to see if Iraq was trying to buy uranium that could be used for nuclear weapons.
