THE CIA AND THE MEDIA
How Americas Most Powerful News Media Worked Hand in Glove with the Central
Intelligence Agency and Why the Church Committee Covered It Up
BY CARL BERNSTEIN
In 1953, Joseph Alsop, then one of America’s leading syndicated columnists, went to the
Philippines to cover an election. He did not go because he was asked to do so by his
syndicate. He did not go because he was asked to do so by the newspapers that printed his
column. He went at the request of the CIA.
Alsop is one of more than 400 American journalists who in the past twenty-five years have
secretly carried out assignments for the Central Intelligence Agency, according to documents
on file at CIA headquarters. Some of these journalists’ relationships with the Agency were
tacit; some were explicit. There was cooperation, accommodation and overlap. Journalists
provided a full range of clandestine services—from simple intelligence gathering to serving as
go-betweens with spies in Communist countries. Reporters shared their notebooks with the
CIA. Editors shared their staffs. Some of the journalists were Pulitzer Prize winners,
distinguished reporters who considered themselves ambassadors without-portfolio for their
country. Most were less exalted: foreign correspondents who found that their association with
the Agency helped their work; stringers and freelancers who were as interested in the
derring-do of the spy business as in filing articles; and, the smallest category, full-time CIA
employees masquerading as journalists abroad. In many instances, CIA documents show,
journalists were engaged to perform tasks for the CIA with the consent of the managements
of America’s leading news organizations
