After more than seven years since former diplomat Joe Wilson revealed in an op-ed in the New York Times that he had gone to Niger on a CIA assignment which led to the eventual outing of his wife as a CIA operative Hollywood has revived the story in favor of the Wilsons.
Actress Naomi Watts was interviewed by CNN about her role playing Valerie Plame in the movie Fair Game.
I bet that until Watts was handed the script that she had no idea who Joe Wilson or Valerie Plame were and had no knowledge of what happened beyond what she might have read later in the mainstream media who defended the couple in the court of public opinion.
It wouldn’t have been hard to learn the truth about Wilson and Plame since AIM has covered the story extensively but that would have ruined the premise for the movie.
Instead Wilson and Plame are now basking in the limelight again with the opening of the movie scheduled for November 5th and left wing blogs are all agog over the opportunity to rehash this fairy tale and to take another stab at George W. Bush.
With the country experiencing a Tea Party moment the chances are that this movie will have a tough time gaining any traction since it will be opening just three days after the mid-term elections. If the brief review from Popcorn Biz is any indication the film will have a very short shelf life despite the efforts of the mainstream media to drum up viewer interest.

6 Comments for Hollywood Perpetuates Wilson-Plame Affair Myth
Living a lie is made easier when the progressive media supports that lie.
Don’t forget that Richard Armitage was the one who actually gave Novak her name. Nothing like State Department Commies to blow security.
Then there is the issue that the Russians had made Val in the ’90′s and her own department sent a message to the US Embassy in Cuba in the clear about her. Yeah, she was really undercover at her desk job!!!
Lemme see, oh yeah, and wasn’t the head of the trade delegation from Iraq the head of the mothballed Nuclear Program? Not to mention Niger doesn’t have much to trade except yellowcake. I just can’t figure out why those dumb spies could get the idea they might have been trying to buy yellowcake!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Hollyweirds not interested in the truth just in what suits their leftists agenda
One aspect of Plame’s career that was not adequately covered in the news is the following: If she served in an embassy, I can assure you based on my
own experience, that there were many who knew who and what she was and what she did. So the idea that she was somehow under deep cover and no one knew about her is farcical.
To start with: virtually all the Americans in the Embassy in Athens would know who she was and what component she served. So much for cover. She could only hope that they wouldn’t talk outside the embassy about her, but would support her cover.
It is also a certainty that some of the locals in the Athens Embassy would either know or strongly suspect for whom she worked since in a variety of ways they would have to service the administrative and support functions for her.
So much for her cover. As for her “deep cover” assignements, given the fact that she was already known to many in the Athens Embassy, few would doubt that her future assignments in the private sector were anything but another cover.
Once she served in the Athens Embassy she was a known quantity.
Maybe this will be an accurate documentary, in which Valerie Plame outs herself by sending her husband to Niger. Her agonizing decision to forfeit her desk job for a lifetime of luxury paid for by America’s enemies.
It could even have her looking up “treason” in Wackypedia, to learn how it’s done.
Who cares about Jow Wilson and Valerie Plame????? No one!!!!They lied about Plame being under cover when she was NOT. Now the liberals in Hollywood are fabricating a movie about them for what purpose?????? It is just another extension of the original lie in movie form. The only people who actually go to the movies are parents of children when a new kid’s film comes out and the flaming liberals in Hollywood who live in a make believe world and have no sense of reality.
