Opinion | Michael Hayden: The End of Intelligence

“In this post-truth world, intelligence
agencies are in the bunker with some unlikely mates: journalism,
academia, the courts, law enforcement and science — all of which, like
intelligence gathering, are evidence-based. Intelligence shares a
broader duty with these other truth-tellers to preserve the commitment
and ability of our society to base important decisions on our best
judgment of what constitutes objective reality.”
