LA TIMES MOVES PERJURY WITH ROVE TO FRONT PAGE

[dogday]

WASHINGTON -- The special prosecutor in the CIA leak investigation has shifted his focus from whether White House officials violated a law against exposing undercover agents to determining whether evidence exists to bring perjury or obstruction of justice charges, according to people briefed in recent days on the inquiry's status, the Los Angeles Times reports Saturday, RAW STORY has learned.

The stories have now been posted, but RAW STORY has included key excerpts from both stories here, so as to provide relevant content in one story. Read the full LA Times here and the Washington Post story here.

The LA Times piece is titled: "CIA Probe Moves from Leak Source to Perjury, Obstruction." The Post title is more muted: "Testimony By Rove And Libby Examined."

1. They (LAT) aren't afraid ...

As of today's story, they seem to be widening the investigation.

"...An official close to the investigation said Fitzgerald was concentrating on what happened in the White House and OTHER PARTS OF THE ADMINISTRATION in those eight days." (...eight days after Wilson's op-ed piece)

What could "other parts of the administration" be? DOD? DOS?
