Default Plame Lawsuit Against Cheney Et Al Dismissed, Will Media Care?

Valerie Plame was dealt another setback Tuesday when a U.S. court of appeals upheld a federal judge's decision to dismiss her lawsuit against members of the Bush administration.

Plame Lawsuit Against Cheney Et Al Dismissed, Will Media Care? | NewsBusters.org
But a three-judge panel of the appeals court upheld a federal judge's ruling that dismissed the couple's lawsuit.

The court ruled Cheney and the others were acting within their official capacity when they revealed Plame's identity to reporters.
Noel Sheppherd seems to think if the verdict had turned the other way, the media would be all over it.

I must admit, I hadn't heard anything myself.

Of course you didn't...

Doesn't help the narrative of frogmarching an administration staffer into the paddywagon...
