I am the source for this quote, which was indeed said by CIA Director William
Casey at an early February 1981 meeting of the newly elected President Reagan
with his new cabinet secretaries to report to him on what they had learned about
their agencies in the first couple of weeks of the administration.
The meeting was in the Roosevelt Room in the West Wing of the White House,
not far from the Cabinet Room. I was present at the meeting as Assistant to the
chief domestic policy adviser to the President. Casey first told Reagan that he
had been astonished to discover that over 80 percent of the 'intelligence'
that the analysis side of the CIA produced was based on open public sources like
newspapers and magazines.
As he did to all the other secretaries of their departments and agencies, Reagan
asked what he saw as his goal as director for the CIA, to which
he replied with this quote, which I recorded in my notes of the meeting
as he said it. Shortly thereafter I told Senior White House correspondent Sarah
McClendon, who was a close friend and colleague, who in turn made it public.
