I’d be curious as to what was found in those two months phone records of 20 reporters that would rise to the level of “leaking US secrets” and “cooperating with spies.”
Since hardly any or none of them possess any type of security clearance, the CIA/US AG sure seem to be giving these lowly news reporters a lot of credit.
I would be surprised to learn if any “untoward” numbers at all were dialed/rec’d from in that thick stack of phone bills for 20 rptrs x 2 mos, lol. If they were, how would any of these peons’ KNOW the caller/callee was a spy??
This whole debacle may very well have been “engineered” for naught, IMHO.
