Richard Perle reportedly used Rowland Evans and Novak to leak classified information in the 1970's – and is now a member of the board of Hollinger International Inc., which owns the Chicago Sun-Times, the home newspaper of Novak's syndicated column.

Dana Milbank reported in the Washington Post that Richard Perle was the chief suspect in another Novak-assisted leak of classified information in December 1975: "Novak, with his late partner Rowland Evans, got the classified leak -- that President Gerald R. Ford and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger were ready to make concessions to the Soviet Union to save the SALT II treaty. Donald H. Rumsfeld, then, as now, the secretary of defense, intervened to block Kissinger." Perle at the time was "an influential aide to Sen. Henry Scoop Jackson (D-Wash.) ... The account was described in a 1977 article in The Washington Post, noting Perle's 'special access' to Evans and Novak." <8> (http://www.truthout.org/docs_03/100903E.shtml)

Evans and Novak were "chief recipients" of classifed leaks: "Evans and Novak, the National Journal wrote in 1979, were among the three 'chief recipients' of classified leaks from Perle." The 1977 Post article stated: "Several sources in Congress and the executive branch who regard Perle as an opponent said that he and his allies make masterful use of the Evans and Novak column. One congressional aide who tries to counter Perle's and Jackson's influence on arms issues said the Evans and Novak 'connection' helps Perle create a 'murky, threatening atmosphere' in his dealings with others." <9> (http://www.truthout.org/docs_03/100903E.shtml)

Perle and Kissinger still tied to Novak via Hollinger: Richard Perle – who was suspected of leaking classified information to Novak and Evans in the 1970's -- and Henry Kissinger – whose intentions were leaked about in the 1975 incident -- are both members of the board (http://www.SourceWatch.org/wiki.phtml?title=Hollinger_International_Inc.) of Hollinger, which currently owns Novak's "home" newspaper, the Chicago Sun-Times. Perle has been on the board since 1994, and Kissinger has been on the board since 1996END
