Personally, I suspect that the lack of coverage of the Scooter Libby trial reflects a recognition that the initial coverage was way overblown and incorrect speculation.
It all boils down to a perjury charge arguably less significant than Clinton's? Well, no need to follow up that once the "vengeance links on behalf of Cheney" stories are out of the barn.
For group of people concerned with facts, some of the media in this case have awfully bad memories.
But of course, that's just my bias.
