Robert D. Novak

Robert D. Novak, Conservative Columnist, Is Dead at 78

Robert D. Novak, the pugnacious political columnist and cable
television fixture whose scoops reached across five decades
and whose nickname, "the prince of darkness," was invoked
with renewed fervor in 2003 when, acting on a tip, he
revealed the name of a C.I.A. officer, setting the stage for
a criminal investigation, died Tuesday at his home in
Washington. He was 78.
