John Kiriakou, a press-whoring ex-CIA ‘agent’ (bureaucrat, actually) has been busted for leaking classified information to the press, exposing actual field agents, lying to the CIA, etc.
John Kiriakou, 47, was charged with four counts that ranged from disclosing classified details about counter-terrorism operations to the press, to lying to the CIA about the origin of sensitive information he published in a book about his career.
Kiriakou, whose CIA career spanned from 1990 to 2004, was depicted in a criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Alexandria as a significant source for articles including a detailed account in the New York Times of the interrogation of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the self-proclaimed mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
What a slime ball. But this was apparent to everyone except, apparently, the fawning reporters.
Joe Wilson was last seen hiding under his bed.

But let's not overlook the despicable reporters, editors, and lawyers who, receiving the sensitive information, felt free to publish it and/or share it with actual terrorists.
