I caught this Michael Ledeen observation at The Corner and thought I might do a quick Google News Search comparison based upon it:

Orwell’s AP “reporting” on McClellan’s earth-shaking testimony today, blaming the usual suspects (bush itlercheneyscooter) for the leak, never once bothering to report that it was Armitage.
Google News Search for the following, when sorted according to date:
“scott mcclellan” + “bush” = 110 news results in the last 24 hours
“scott mcclellan” + “cheney” = 86 news results in the last 24 hours
“scott mcclellan” + “libby” = 80 news results in the last 24 hours
“scott mcclellan” + “rove” = 41 news results in the last 24 hours
“scott mcclellan” + “armitage” = 4 news results in the last 24 hours
Now, how in the world could that have happened? To be fair, the AP has since updated an earlier version of their story that did not mention Armitage, to include him.
