Patricia. "Student, Trouper, Good Friend, Spy: A Filmmaker Plots the
'Traitor Within.'" Washington Post, 29 Nov. 1998, Y6. [http://www.washingtonpost.com]
Report on the background of Robert Benedetti's Showtime film, "Aldrich Ames: Traitor Within," aired on 29 November 1998. Benedetti describes the film thusly: "If there was a choice to be made for historical accuracy and dramatic value, we chose dramatic value. It's sort of novelized history, history for dramatic purposes. As such, it is mostly a character study; the psychology and the drama is more important than the politics and the history."

Peake, Studies 56.2 (Jun. 2012) and Intelligencer 19.2 (Summer-Fall 2012), finds that the author "deals with an alarming situation without being alarmist." The book "is very well written and concludes with some suggestions to Congress, the executive branch, individuals, and the private sector for 'managing the mess.'"

This is a neat "little" article, done perhaps with a bit of tongue in cheek; but with an important issue behind it. The author assails the "waste and inefficiency of central planning" as practiced by the intelligence community. He argues for a market-driven allocation of resources, with consumers "paying" for the product they receive.

Clark comment: The focus here, despite the title, is the Savings & Loan crisis. For Surveillant 2.6 this "type of follow-the-dots conspiracy theory would implicate even the Domino Pizza delivery boy who might have rung the bell of an ex-Mafioso or failed S&L operator." Chambers is more succinct, calling it "conspiratorial drivel."
