Stratfor Email: Brennan Behind 'Witch Hunt' of Journalists Reporting Leaks
Email at linkAn obscure November 2012 Wikileaks email dump points to former White House counterterrorism adviser and now-CIA chief John Brennan as the person behind the witch hunt of journalists who reported unflattering Obama administration leaks. A little over a week after President Barack Obamas reelection, Wikileaks released an email dump of global intelligence files from the private intelligence company Stratfor. One particular email, dated September 21, 2010 discussed President Obamas Leak Investigations. The Massachusetts ACLU tweeted out a link that referenced the email and the presidents war on whistleblowers on November 15, 2012. The tweet only received two re-tweets after sitting online for seven months. Stratfor's VP for Intelligence, Fred Burton, declined to comment for this story. The Obama administration has faced criticism not only for seizing phone records of 20 Associated Press reporters but also monitoring private emails and phone calls of Fox News Reporter James Rosen.
