Update On IndyMedia

CBS had posted this update earlier today:

Update 1:59pm E.T.: A Justice Department official familiar with this subpoena just told me that the attorney general's office never saw it and that it had not been submitted to the department's headquarters in Washington, D.C. for review. If that's correct, it suggests that U.S. Attorney Tim Morrison and Assistant U.S. Attorney Doris Pryor did not follow department regulations requiring the "express authorization of the attorney general" for media subpoenas -- and it means that neither Attorney General Eric Holder nor Acting Attorney General Mark Filip were involved. I wouldn't be surprised to see an internal investigation by the Office of Professional Responsibility; my source would not confirm or deny that.

So is it still Obama’s fault? Ummm – NO! Now the big question lingers – did AG Mukasey see this subpoena? Going by all known dates and times it very well could have fallen under his watch. Maybe the OPR will find out for us.
