Heroic CIA Whistleblower Fired For Revealing Secret CIA Run Prisons |

Heroic CIA Whistleblower Fired For Revealing Secret CIA Run Prisons
By Kall, Rob
While the CIA did not reveal the identity of the intelligence
officer, NBC news reported that she is Mary McCarthy, an agency
employee since 1984.
A Washington Post article revealed
The CIA fired a long-serving intelligence officer for sharing
classified information with The Washington Post and other news
organizations, officials said yesterday, as the agency continued an
aggressive internal search for anyone who may have discussed
intelligence with the news media.
CIA officials said the career intelligence officer failed more
than one polygraph test and acknowledged unauthorized contacts with
reporters. The "officer knowingly and willfully shared classified
intelligence, including operational information" with journalists,
the agency said in a statement yesterday....
McCarthy began her career in government as an analyst at the CIA
in 1984, public documents show. She served as special assistant to
the president and senior director for intelligence programs at the
White House during the Clinton administration and the first few
months of the Bush administration. She later returned to the CIA.
Attempts to reach her last night were unsuccessful.
The CIA's statement did not name the reporters it believes were
involved, but several intelligence officials said The Post's Dana
Priest was among them. This week, Priest won the Pulitzer Prize for
beat reporting for articles about the agency, including one that
revealed the existence of secret, CIA-run prisons in Eastern Europe
and elsewhere.
It is shameful and outrageous that the Bush administration can
cavalierly declassify espionage information for political reasons.
Mary McCarthy should be receiving accolades and awards for her
courage in standing up for Democracy in a time when criminals are
running the legal system. We need to raise a hue and cry supporting
her.

Ms. McCarthy's big mistake was not developing a friendship with Bush or
Cheney. If she was a Bush or Cheney friend, McCarthy not only would not
have been fired, she would have been promoted.

you continue to demonstrate your ignorance of usenet newsgroups,
scumball, and your disrespect for readers' ability to decide for
themselves what is and is not appropriate.
do you feel like a hypocrite criticizing others for doing what you
do?
