And the following note was sent from John C. Henry, News Editor for AP Washington.

Print and Web colleagues,

We had nine volunteers for the print pool during the upcoming
Libby trial. A drawing was held a short time ago to establish the
rotation for the lone print journalist seat in the courtroom during voir dire. Here’s the order:

Bloomberg — Cary O’Reilly
Reuters — Andy Sullivan
Legal Times — Emma Schwartz
LA Times — Rick Schmitt
Washington Post — Carol Leonnig
Wall Street Journal — Evan Perez
Associated Press — Matt Apuzzo
New York Times — Neil Lewis
Huffington Post — A.J. Schuller

The groupings above assume that poolers will take turns in the
courtroom thusly on Tuesday, Wednesday and (if necessary) Wednesday:
– morning session
– first afternoon session
– final afternoon session

This might change, depending on the court’s daily schedule for
voir dire.

A reminder: Poolers are required, once their sessions end, to
give their colleagues oral read-outs at an agreed location, probably in the first-floor filing room.
