Corporate media keeps US citizens in the dark: Pakistan Outs Three US CIA Station Chiefs in Three Years

For the third time in three years, a CIA station chief has been outed in Pakistan, a country where the CIA is running one of its largest covert operations. It's a remarkable record of failure by the CIA, since each outing, which has required a replacement of the station chief position, causes a breakdown in the agency's network of contacts in the country.

The full names of all three station chiefs have been published widely in Pakistan and India and all over the world via the Internet--though Americans getting their news exclusively from domestic mainstream media wouldn't know, as those organizations have consistently blacked out the names.

The latest outing was the work of a major political organization, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party (PTI) and its founder, cricket star Imran Khan, who has been calling for an end to US drone strikes inside his country. Khan's party came in second in Pakistan's recent parliamentary election.

The PTI, angry that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has not demanded a halt to the US "targeted killing" of Pakistanis, filed a public complaint with police in late November.
