Talk:Frederick Fleitz
I was contacted by Fleitz re the par below, noting that it was inaccurate especially given the recent revelations that Armitage was the source for Novak. I informed him I'd have a look at it and get back to him as soon as possible.
I'm no expert on the topic, but from reviewing what is online a) there is no hard evidence that Fleitz was the source b) many sources indicate that he was in the network and of interest but don't go as far as making the allegation as Raw Story does (and I would prefer that we stuck as far as possible to what was known rather than alleged esp to anonymous sources or documents that can't be checked or haven't been verified by others); and c) it does seem like the Raw Story line has been superseded by the latest Armitage revelations.
If others have a different view, please post a note. Otherwise, if there is no compelling evidence to the contrary I'm for deleting it. --Bob Burton 05:47, 7 Sep 2006 (EDT)

- Fleitz has also been accused of supplying his former boss John Bolton with the name of US intelligence agent Valerie Plame in an effort to discredit the evidence of Plame's husband Joseph Wilson, that evidence of Niger supplying yellowcake to Iraq had been forged. [1]
