I bet you won't find Tucker (or any other right-wing journalist) given free reign to wander the premises at will...Don't be sure.

John Kiriakou looked up from his desk at CIA headquarters and was stunned to see The Washington Post investigative reporter, Bob Woodward, walking through the secure area without an agency escort. On another occasion, Kiriakou—who rose at the CIA to become executive assistant to the deputy in charge of operations, the spy agency’s dark activities—saw CNN host Wolf Blitzer wandering unattended through the same area, despite the CIA’s ban on communicating with the media.
“We like to think there’s a Chinese wall between the CIA, especially senior CIA officials, and the American media,” Kiriakou recently told the London Real podcast. “In fact, they’re in bed together.”
Kiriakou later became a well-known whistleblower. He was the only CIA employee who went to prison for the agency’s torture program, sentenced in 2013 to 30 months behind bars—not because he himself tortured anyone, but because he told an ABC News reporter about the waterboarding to which the agency subjected a war on terror captive.
These days, Kiriakou is outraged for a different reason: the tight connection between the CIA and the media elite. All too often, he says, the national security journalists who are granted access by Langley can be trusted to see world affairs—and the U.S. empire’s dominant role in them—the way the CIA wants them to. Whether it’s the war in Ukraine, tensions with Russia and China, or U.S. military exploits in the Middle East and Africa, coverage in The New York Times, The Washington Post and on television reflects the slanted view of the national security establishment.

It’s all the same thing. Media. Democrats. Republicans. Career Bureaucrats. All the same thing. They call it “Our Democracy”. But it’s basically Cosa Nostra.

Maybe Chinese are there, though. They have the inside track.
Goldfinger synopsis—
Bond also finds him in collusion with Chinese agents on a major secret plan referred to as Operation Grand Slam. Bond ends up being captured by Goldfinger and threatened with dissection by laser beam. He bluffs that he knows the meaning of Operation Grand Slam, and Goldfinger spares his life.
I always wonder who are the DHS/FBI/CIA agents posting here on FR.
Its certainly more than “a few.”
I think the subject is hillarious; since we pretty well know that the DNC lapdog CIA leaks to the lib media worse than a sieve....with items harmful to MAGA types.
They are employees and not journalists. They don’t need escorts.
