7. His October 1977 "CIA and the Media" in Rolling Stone needs updating
Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 03:28 PM by EVDebs
Also needs to be put onto the web in full 'for public domain' if possible. All 17 pages of it need fully updated. Proprietaries possibly inclued media entities now...

Plus his buddy Robert Woodward deserves a real look-see ! Seems he was either used by (now Sen.) Robert F. Bennett during Watergate or he needs to clarify things re Deep Throat. Come clean Bob !

Deep Throat
A few more thoughts about Watergate
By Bob Harris
www.metroactive.com/papers/sonoma/07.03.97/scoop-9727.html

""What's missing is an understanding of Deep Throat, Woodward's garage-lurking source who guided the reporters to some of their biggest leads. If he was just a concerned citizen, great. But if Deep Throat had his own agenda, then he used the Washington Post to shape the story for his own purposes and got away clean.

"I have told Woodward everything I know about the Watergate case, except the Mullen Company's tie to the CIA."--Robert F. Bennett, testifying before House Special Committee on Intelligence, July 2, 1974.

Robert Bennett was the head of Robert R. Mullen and Co., a CIA front headquartered in the very same building as the CIA's Domestic Operations Division. The Mullen Co. did legitimate PR work; it also did PR for other CIA fronts and provided cover abroad for CIA operations. Bennett's most notable employee was Howard Hunt, a former chief of covert actions for the Domestic Operations Division of the CIA.""

Bennett is now Senator from UT (shades of Bluto Blutarsky from Animal House, huh ?)...CIA domestic operations ???

and the Probe article on Bob Woodward re Lt. j.g. Woodward's intell connections, also mentioned in the book Secret Agenda by Jim Hougan, deserves a look
