Before he turned into a stooge for the very people he tried to expose, Carl Bernstein (of Woodward & Bernstein fame/infamy) had an article published in Rolling Stone that exposed the CIA's infiltration into American newsrooms:
He was a stooge first. He was involved in the plot to take down a President before he wrote this. He knew the new guy he was working with (Woodward) was Naval Intelligence.
A very good point and very poor wording on my part as you are certainly correct.
Though Bernstein's article and the timing is rather interesting given the timeline. It points to a rather complex relationship between Bernstein and the CIA at the time.

Showing a Leftist this article tend to set off all sorts of mental gymnastics.
