Meet the Press/Matthew Cooper on his grand jury testimony

[cal04]

As the investigation into the leak of Valerie Plame's identity as a CIA officer heats up, we will have an exclusive network interview with one of the men at the center of the investigation -- Time Magazine reporter Matt Cooper. He avoided going to jail just days ago by testifying to the grand jury after his source released him from his pledge of confidentiality. What did Matt Cooper tell the grand jury? He will discuss his testimony for the first time this Sunday on "Meet the Press with Tim Russert."

Then, what will be the political fallout of the leak investigation and the new reports that White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove did indeed speak to a reporter about CIA Officer Valerie Plame? We will ask Rove's former Deputy, now the Chairman of the Republican National Committee, Ken Mehlman, and the former Clinton Chief of Staff who now heads the liberal policy research group "The Center for American Progress," John Podesta.

Then, we turn to another famous case of government leaks and Washington reporting. In an exclusive interview, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein reunite on the "Meet the Press" set to discuss the revelation of Mark Felt as their famous Watergate source, which ended a mystery in American politics that spanned three decades. They will also share insights into Woodward's new book "The Secret Man: The Story of Watergate's Deep Throat" -- which details his relationship with American journalism's most famous source.
