Nov 04/10 - Pt 2: Fair Game

We talk to former CIA operative Valerie Plame about having her cover blown by her own government ... having a movie made about it ... and what lessons she thinks we should take away from it all.

Listen to Part Two: (Pop-up)


PART TWO

Fair Game - Valerie Plame

We started this segment with a clip of actor Naomi Watts playing former CIA-operative Valerie Plame in a new movie called Fair Game.

Fair Game opens this Friday in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver. It tells the story of former CIA-operative Valerie Plame. Her career was destroyed when her identity was made public by Washington Post Columnist Robert Novak. That was on July 14th, 2003 ... just four months after the invasion of Iraq and shortly after her husband -- Ambassador Joseph Wilson -- had publicly challenged the Bush Administration's case for invading Iraq.

It's a story that dogged President George Bush throughout the rest of his time in office and one that still resonates. Valerie Plame was closely involved in the making of Fair Game. She was in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Fair Game opens Friday in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver.
