Chinese firm paid US gov't intelligence adviser

AP foreign, Friday December 6 2013

STEPHEN BRAUN

Associated Press= WASHINGTON (AP) — A longtime adviser to the Director of National Intelligence has resigned, after the government learned he was a paid consultant to a Chinese tech company considered an espionage threat by the U.S.

Theodore H. Moran is an expert on China's international investment. He's served since 2007 as adviser to the intelligence director's advisory panel on foreign investment.

He also worked an adviser to the National Intelligence Council, the group of 18 senior analysts and policy experts who provide U.S. spy agencies with judgments on important international issues.
