| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The relationship between the press and the Intelligence Community (IC) in the United States has long been a subject of debate.1 The press alternately has been labeled a collaborator and enabler of U.S. intelligence by previously allowing Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) personnel to pose as journalists and by keeping information about the CIA from the public. It has also been accused of undermining the activities of the IC and endangering U.S. national security by exposing ongoing operations, wrongdoing, scandals, and failures, as well as by publishing secrets. Today, still another relationship is emerging: the press as an independent instrument of oversight. |
