There have been two recent reports out of the European Union stating that the "secret prisons" stories couldn't be confirmed. No evidence, and those who testified on some elements of the stories were found to be neither credible nor relevant.

Hence, there's now some speculation elsewhere on the Internet that the "secret prisons" story originially began inside the CIA in an effort to identify leakers. McCarthy took the bait and leaked this false story to Dana Priest of the WashPost.

Which means that Priest's Pulitzer Prize is also completely bogus.

I commented on another thread that I think it is instructive how quiet Senators Rockefeller and Durbin have been.
Sadly, I don't think this Administration has the b*lls to nail these guys, even if they deserve it.
See Able Danger, the TSA, FEMA,etc., etc.,etc.

That was one of my first thoughts. Disinformation used to detect traitors. Is there a procedure in place to revoke a Pulitzer if the the "news story" is subsequently found to be false?
