In one of the worst examples of yellow journalism was perpetrated by the very respected Paul Harvey. The day of the World Trade Center bombing, Paul Harvey announced to the world that his CIA sources had told him that the Serbs were responsible for that atrocity. Mr. Harvey repeated his accusations against the Serbs for the following three days. First I've heard of this. Evidence that the CIA was embarrassed by the misdeeds of its Islamist buddies?

the real problem is that intel community will become saturated with slimeballs who mingled with muslim terrorists in the balkans. They have skeletons in their closets and they present security risk.
Have you seen this article?
It's the tip of the iceberg.
U.S. Army, USMC are contaminated and cleanup is long due.

IIRC, Harvey's sources were not in the CIA, but in the NYPD--and his report was based on a phone call claiming credit for the bombing, received within minutes of detonation.
Maybe it was the terrorists laying a false trail.
Maybe it was someone who sympathies lay with Serbia who saw an opportunity.

Paul Harvey felt so betrayed by that CIA Leak that he has been on a pro-Serb and anti-Kosovo and Bosnia missions since that time.
He is one of the journalists who has actually kept Kosovo in the news with a light of truth on the situtation.
