NY Times Publishes Op-Ed article Redacted by C.I.A.

By Flynt Leverett and Hillary Mann:

"HERE is the redacted version of a draft Op-Ed article we wrote for The Times, as blacked out by the Central Intelligence Agency’s Publication Review Board after the White House intervened in the normal prepublication review process and demanded substantial deletions. Agency officials told us that they had concluded on their own that the original draft included no classified material, but that they had to bow to the White House."  [RJ]
