(Knight Centre) First a Rolling Stone article brought down General Stanley McChrystal, who said too much to a reporter. Now, the Washington Post is under fire for its controversial new series and database about "top secret" agencies that some critics contend reveals too much and could bring down America.
The series, by Puliter Prize winning reporter Dana Priest and national security blogger William M. Arkin, is the result of a two-year investigation into the buildup of national security following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, according to The New York Times.
