Bob Woodward Knew Karl Rove Was A Valerie Plame Leaker And Withheld The Info To Help Bush in 2004

He later apologized.

A journalist sitting on explosive information right before an election to help one candidate is not a journalist.

Woodward just wants to sell books, and doesn't give a damn about journalism, or or democracy, much less truth or justice.

He is a total and complete fraud.

I wouldn't buy his book to burn.

Actually he has released the "explosive information" just in time this time. I can't help laugh at those who vow to not buy the book as if that makes one iota of difference. It doesn't.
