Internet blows CIA cover

Uh, no it does not. Please stop jumping to conclusions (wait for the whole page to load), and creating an negative overcast on the whole thread.
Back on topic, I am surprised that the CiA allowed this too happen, I am sure the situation is much smaller then the Tribune makes it out to be, but I would still think the location of secret CIA locations would be hidden (although how secret and important we shall never know).

The Chicago Tribune says it has compiled a list of 2,653 CIA employees, just by searching the internet.
The newspaper said it gathered the information from online services that compile public data, that any fee-paying subscriber can access.
It did not publish the names, at the CIA's request. Many of the agents are believed to be covert. The paper also located two dozen "secret" facilities.
A CIA spokeswoman admitted the internet had scuppered some of its methods.
"Cover is a complex issue that is more complex in the internet age," said Jennifer Dyck.
"There are things that worked previously that no longer work. [CIA Director Porter] Goss is committed to modernising the way the agency does cover in order to protect our officers who are doing dangerous work."
Ms Dyck declined to detail the remedies "since we don't want the bad guys to know what we're fixing".
Terror targets?
The Chicago Tribune article was headlined: "Internet blows CIA cover."
It began: "She is 52 years old, married, grew up in the Kansas City suburbs and now lives in Virginia, in a new three-bedroom house."
It went on to explain that the online service describes the woman in question as a CIA employee who has been assigned to several American embassies in Europe.
The CIA confirmed that she was a covert operative.
The paper also identified facilities in Chicago, northern Virginia, Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Utah and Washington state. It said some were heavily guarded, but others appeared outwardly to be private residences.
Asked how so many personal details of CIA employees had found their way into the public domain, a senior US intelligence official told the Tribune "I don't have a great explanation, quite frankly".
Asked about fears that the details might be accessed by terrorist groups, he replied: "I don't know whether al-Qaeda could do this, but the Chinese could."
The disclosure comes as the US justice department continues an investigation into whether members of the Bush administration deliberately exposed the identity of CIA operative Valerie Plame.

doesn't change the fact that you were owned hardcore. 😉
I don't think so, I can see it and I have never even been on the Chicago Tribune's site before. And, may I ask, to what degree of education do you have to be repsonding to a thread and a mistake by the OP in such a way, because it does seem to make you come off like a little child who has been left behind by his parents because even they do not like him, so he resorts to online forums for his trolling.
