DNI Clapper Needs to Know | The Weekly Standard

DNI Clapper Needs to Know | The Weekly Standard: "Little did Director of National Intelligence James Clapper know that when he and two of his Obama administration colleagues sat down to discuss the terror threat with ABC’s Diane Sawyer earlier this month that his appearance would be the source of controversy. As has been widely reported, Clapper did not know what Sawyer was talking about when she asked a seemingly innocuous question concerning terror-related arrests in the UK just hours earlier. Clapper’s defenders, including inside the administration, have argued that he is a busy man, focused on many diverse threats, and so he wasn’t briefed when he should have been."
