WASHINGTON: The latest media scoop about the internal workings of the US intelligence community has convinced officials they have a new leaker feeding information to journalists, reports said yesterday.
The concerns came after The Intercept, a news site that has access to documents from known leaker Edward Snowden, published new revelations about the scope of the US terrorism watchlist.
The Intercept report was “obtained from a source in the intelligence community.” Previously, it has not hidden when Snowden was its source, suggesting the latest scoop came from someone else. The Intercept is edited by US journalist Glenn Greenwald.
