Luskin Denies Truth of Leopold Article on Karl Rove Indictment
Robert Luskin, Karl Rove's attorney, has officially denied the allegations in Jason Leopold's article reporting Rove has been indicted and that there was a Fitzgerald-Luskin meeting on Friday.
I received the denial directly from Robert Luskin this afternoon.
1. Luskin stands by his April 26 statement in its entirety.
2. Karl Rove's status has not changed. They remain confident Fitzgerald will decline to bring any charges.
3. There is "no truth whatsoever" to any of Jason Leopold's recent stories about Karl Rove's resignation, the alleged meeting in his office or the Indictment. The denial he gave me Saturday night was and was intended to be "all purpose."
4. As far as he knows, Patrick Fitzgerald was in Chicago on Friday.
5. People should not interpret their "unwillingness to comment on every wild and malicious rumor as a change in position."
