WASHINGTON -- CIA director Leon Panetta is warning his employees that leakers will be investigated and possibly prosecuted after a flurry of reports in the media about the technology and methods used to track and ultimately kill Osama bin Laden.
In a memo obtained by The Associated Press, Panetta told staff Wednesday that the disclosure of classified information to anyone not cleared for it - reporters, friends, colleagues in other agencies or former CIA officers - can endanger lives.
So Panetta's memo yelling at CIA employees for leaking all the sexy Bin Laden murder stuff isitselfleaked, immediately. CIA, we hate to engage in old Internet cliches at a time when our doomed nation very much needs to take the lead in creating new Internet cliches, but you're doing it wrong. [ Associated Press ]
I thought the first reaction was, "Wow ... these really suck!"
It was released on a need-to-know basis - and Leon wants <b>everybody</b> to know that leaks are frowned upon.
That&#039;s why I did it. Really! That&#039;s the only reason!! AAAH! NOT AGAIN!!!?! *Glub glub cough hack glub glub...*
