Ken Dilanian routinely sent drafts of his stories to and closely worked with members of the CIA press office prior to publication while he was a reporter at the Los Angeles Times, The Intercept reports.

Ken Dilanian, when writing for Los Angeles Times, regularly solicited reaction & comment on his draft articles from CIA BEFORE publishing them. (Thanks to an FOIA request, we have exchanges of emails between Dilanian and John Brennan’s PR friends at CIA.)

Dilanian got an absurdist MNSBC spot to explain one of his latest reports, which is based almost entirely on an assertion that Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe made in a Wall Street Journal op-ed.
