I'm feeling anxious
"White House on Edge in CIA Leak Case".
The case itself seems boring enough, but the reporting is comedy gold. The leading clause:
The waiting for possible indictments in the CIA leak investigation caused high anxiety at the White House on Wednesday...
The story then goes on to cite examples of people who do not look anxious at all, and Bush doing presidential things.
Or, thanks to Fark, we have "CIA leak probe has Washington waiting," appropriately Farklined: "Attention: Nothing is happening. This apparently is breaking news."
Scan down eleven paragraphs and you see a link to an exciting-looking video clip: "Watch Washington wait for possible indictments -- 2:59."
Reuters is on the story, too, with an article this morning: "Leak probe prosecutor arrives at court." It's a three-paragraph story explaining that... well... the prosecutor arrived at court.
Good job, media folks. Thanks for keeping us informed.
