Vice President Dick Cheney expressed concern about Ambassador Joseph Wilson’s trip to Niger. At some point after the publication of the July 6, 2003 New York Times Op Ed by Wilson, Cheney, \"expressed concerns to defendant (Libby) regarding whether Mr. Wilson's trip was legitimate or whether it was, in effect, a junket set up by Mr. Wilson's wife.\" (Page 19)";

During conversations with the New York Times' Judith Miller and Time magazine’s Matthew Cooper, Libby said he, Cheney and Bush knew the NIE was declassified. According to defendant, at the time of his conversations with Miller and Cooper, he understood that only three people - the President, the Vice President and defendant - knew that the key judgments of the NIE had been declassified. Defendant testified in the grand jury that he understood that even in the days following his conversation with Ms. Miller, other key officials - including Cabinet level officials - were not made aware of the earlier declassification even as those officials were pressed to carry out a declassification of the NIE, the report about Wilson's trip and another classified document dated January 24, 2003.

In early October 2003 (when defendant first gave his story) there would be great embarrassment to the administration if it became publicly known that defendant had participated in disseminating information about Ms. Wilson's CIA employment, and defendant would have had every reason to assume he would be fired if his true actions became known.
