Those who have access to Netflix may find this documentary to be topical.
It concerns the life of William E Colby, who served as Director of CIA during the period of the Church Committee investigation.
In it you will see footage of some of the most liberal members of the Congress at that time railing against the possibility that the CIA was being used to forward the political agenda of the executive branch.
You will also see and hear these same individuals expressing horror that - in the course of the pursuit of these political goals - the CIA might have tapped the telephones of American citizens.

The CIA. You don’t know. You don’t want to know.

Church Committee = 1975. Director Colby eventually replaced by George H.W. Bush.

I see that this was produced by Colby’s son. Do you think that it was objective?
