RightWinged.com: CIA Leaker Mary McCarthy Interview On WABC Radio Tonight At 10PM CT

***SCROLL FOR UPDATES***

Michelle Malkin is reporting, thanks to a tip from Free Republic, that CIA leaker, Joe Wilson associate, and John Kerry supporter Mary McCarthy is scheduled to be interviewed tonight at 10pm ET on WABC.

As this is the John Batchelor Show's timeslot, but it seems that McCarthy will be interviewd by Jed Babbin and Larry Kudlow. Be sure to tune in to the internet stream on WABC Radio's web site, which couldn't be easier to use. I'll be interested to hear if she is, as has been reported, "categorically denying" being the leaker.

The newborn HotAir.com has been all over the McCarthy situation, and her ties to leading Democrats and Bush haters. Today's "Vent with Michelle Malkin" gave a great round-up of what we know, and what is speculation at this point and wondered when we'll see a flow chart from the NY Times with all of McCarthy's Democrat connections, similar to the one they created (that was really reaching), in an effort to tie the Swift Boat Veterans to President Bush.

We briefly see a McCarthy flowchart float by behind Malkin during the segment, but if you're like me, you wanted to see the image and check it out for yourself. Thanks to Mind in the Qatar, we have one (h/t Expose the Left for the link).

This flowchart might be a little confusing if you don't already have the background on McCarthy's connections, which AllahPundit details in this HotAir post. If there's one roundup you read, make it this one.

AllahPundit has an even newer post up at HotAir that describes a bit of confusion on the McCarthy situation on whether she was "the leaker" or a "tipper" that lead to an investigation, that lead to leaks from others. I'm thoroughly confused now, but perhaps we'll learn more from her radio appearance. And as I look at the clock, I see it's about to start....

Before I post this and go listen to the show, just thought I'd let readers know that if they miss it, I just noticed that Expose the Left is planning to post the segment.

***UPDATE I***
The Commissar at The Politburo Diktat has put together another great flow chart for our viewing pleasure (or displeasure if you're thinking about CIA leakers).

***UPDATE II***
Have we been had? No mention of a McCarthy interview yet. I found it odd when I first read the Free Republic post that said:

According to John Batchelor's website, Mary McCarthy will be a guest tonight and be interviewed by Jed Babbin along with the host. Larry Kudlow will also serve as co-host. The show is on at 10 pm EDT on WABC radio and WMAL.

But I saw nothing on John Batchelor's site about it. Still, I assumed that with Malkin reporting it, and no reason to pull a hoax, that it was probably still true... I guess we'll have to wait and see. By the way, I just got a phone call, and missed the last 15 minutes, so if there was a mention of such an interview, I missed it anyway.

***UPDATE III***
Expose the Left confirms that there is no interview. I suppose that was all a bit of wishful thinking on our part, considering she probably won't be doing interviews when there is a likelyhood that she'll be facing charges soon.
