Hi there,

The media can be the greatest force for peace on Earth. Instead, all too often, it’s wielded as a weapon of war. That's why we have to take the media back. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority – those calling for peace in a time of war, demanding action on the climate catastrophe and advocating for racial and economic justice. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Intercept Begins Releasing Trove of Internal NSA Newsletters

HeadlineMay 17, 2016

And The Intercept news site has begun releasing a trove of internal newsletters from what it says is the most significant division of the National Security Agency. The documents from the Signals Intelligence Directorate date back to 2003. In addition to more mundane details about employees’ vacations, The Intercept says the internal newsletters, which were leaked by Edward Snowden, reveal details about how the NSA helped pave the way for the Iraq War, and how its personnel worked alongside the CIA and other agencies on interrogations at Guantánamo.
