Former CIA Officer Valerie Plame & Former US Ambassador Joe Wilson—wife and husband—came by Brave New Studios to talk about their new film, Fair Game, a biography picture, at the moment the White House leaked that Plame was a CIA agent. The film deals how the White House tried to discredit Joe Wilson, by hurting his wife Valerie, in retaliation for writing a New York Times op-ed saying the Bush administration had manipulated intelligence about WMD to justify the invasion of Iraq.
