Potioncat:
If Snape had had no information, or if his information had been wrong, 
he would have lost the fleeting glory bestowed by LV. He wasn't yet 
Headmaster, but it seems the Carrows were in line for a Hogwarts job.

Assuming LV thinks Snape has a source in the Order, then Snape had 
better make use of it. Snape's source "dries up" once Mundungus deserts 
the Order. By that point, he has earned the position at Hogwarts, and 
has good reason to no longer be able to provide information about the 
Order.
