THE DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
16 January 1964
SUBJECT : Agency Relations with News Media
1. Policy guidance concrrning the handling of relations with
news media will be issued from time to time by the Director or
Deputy Director, and under no circumstances is to be changed or
modified except by the Director or Deputy Director in written form,
or orally and confirmed by implementing memorandum.
2. News media contact for background briefings are to be on
a non-attributable basis and are to involve areas of discussion
approved by the Director or the Deputy Director after coordination
by him with the White House, Department of State. and the Depart-
ment of Defense, as appropriate. Such briefings must always be
conducted on an individual and never on a collective basis and with
customary care to avoid disclosures with respect to intelligence
information, estimates or administration policy resulting therefrom.
Briefings involving attribution should be avoided at all times except un-
der the specific authority of the Director or Deputy Director, such
authority to be granted after receipt of policy guidance from the White
House.
3. As a general rule, in the absence of specific instructions
and coordination in accordance with paragraph 2 preceding, CIA
shall make no releases on any of its estimates, analyses, or reports,
whether classified or not. It is considered preferable that such
releases be made, if at all, by departments or agencies other than.
CIA.
4. The substance of personal contacts with individuals of the
press, either socially or otherwise, will be recorded in a memo-
randum for the record as is the Agency's present practice, and a
copy forwarded to Mr. Chretien for his information.

5. It continues to be my desire to create an "image" of CIA
which identifies the Agency with its statutory responsibility for
assembling, analyzing, and evaluating all intelligence of national
significance and reporting the substance of this intelligence to
policy makers. This image can be conveyed by emphasizing the
Agency's statutory role, as contrasted to its operational activities,
in private discussions with our counterparts in Government, with
members of Congress and in occasional meetings with influential
members of the press or general public. It is not desirable in
discussions of this character to refer to operational achievements
or substantive production or to make any statements bearing or
susceptible to attribution.
6. As recent publicity involving the Agency has probably had
a varying impact upon different components, Deputy Directors are
requested to submit to the DDCI statements which assess the
implications of this publicity for their particular areas with recom-
mendations as to what action they consider appropriate to accomplish
the purpose outlined in paragraph 5.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT Agency Relations with News Media
1. This memorandum is in response to paragraph 6 of
Mr. McCone's memorandum for the Executive Committee of
16 January, same subject.
2. The recent publicity has not had significant impact
upon the Directorate of Intelligence. Insofar as it is
discernible the thrust of the reaction of our personnel has
been in the direction of returning to a "no comment" policy.
3. There is uniform agreement, however, that we should
make a sharp distinction between our policy for dealing with
the press and, our policy covering outside contacts of CIA
personnel. While our dealings with the press should. be minimal,
current restrictions on the identification of DDI personnel
could to advantage be relaxed. Thus in at least selected. cases
personnel would be identified. with CIA instead of merely
"US Government" (a tag which is often either meaningless or
ridiculous). Moreover, we should continue our present limited.
distribution of unclassified economic reports.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT : Agency Relations with News Media
REFERENCE : Executive Memo No. 121 dtd 16 Jan 1964 to Deputy
Directors and Heads of Independent Offices fm
DCI, same subject
1. This memorandum is for information only. It responds to the Director's
request that the Deputy Directors assess the implications of recent publicity for
their particular areas of responsibility.
2. In terms of the possible effect upon the discharge of the Agency's Support
responsibilities, there has been no measurable impact and none is expected. With
the exception of the Director of Personnel, however, all of the Support Office Heads
agree that the public image of the Agency suffered. The Director of Personnel
believes that publicity which reflects favorably upon the Agency and brings to public
attention facets of our work which have been relatively unknown to the general public
will work to the advantage of the Agency particularly in our efforts to recruit superior
candidates for employment. Our experience last fall with the "100 Universities
Program" demonstrated quite conclusively that presentations to the public which are
carefully planned and deliberately placed in a proper security context before they
are released to the public can make a very positive contribution toward the creation
of a better public understanding and awareness of our true role in this country's
foreign affairs. I believe it is possible to have an aggressive and positive public
relations program in this pattern without any underlying implications that recruit-
ment is the objective.
3. Among the other Support components the consensus is that any news release
or news conference which deals with the substantive aspects of our operational
activity or the content of our intelligence output will not only weaken our security
but will probably cause adverse public reaction. It is also felt that employee morale
may suffer and our people may become confused by any significant departure from
our traditional policy unless they are adequately prepared in advance for a new
approach to public attribution. Our employees are educated from the time they
enter on duty to remain silent about the Agency's activities and to offer no comment
in response to public criticism. In general they have learned to live with the relative
anonymity imposed upon them by the Agency and their morale normally survives very
commendably the occasional journalistic outbursts against CIA. Most of them have
come to believe that the best image for the Agency is that of the "silent anonymous

service." If we plan now to alter our attitude toward public acclaim, I believe we
should first develop a carefully conceived program and announce it internally to
all of our own people in order that they can be educated and prepared to adjust
their responses in their personal lives.
4. In summary, it seems to me that the objective of creating an image of
CIA identifying it with its statutory responsibility can best be undertaken by a
program patterned after the "100 Universities Program" which we found to be
so successful last fall. In all probability any positive public relations effort we
undertake should not be pointed at the public information media directly but should
perhaps reach them through the technique of causing them to report upon partici-
pation by our senior officials in activities of interest to the public and related to
our statutory responsibilities. Any presentations we make should be carefully
planned and thoroughly considered in terms of possible adverse affects upon our
security or any other aspect of our functions before they are released for public
consumption. Employees should be thoroughly informed of the purpose, intent,
and nature of the program and should be given very definite policy guidance for
their own personal conduct.

1. Attached is a proposed memorandum for you to sign.
Copies will then be given to each of the officers who attend
the morning meetings. This memo has already been read
almost verbatim to the members of the Executive Committee
by me and was handled as a directive for their guidance. Its
phraseology corresponds to that proposed by you in your draft
memorandum of 13 January (attached as Tab A).
2. Discussions with Mr. Bross, Mr. Kirkpatrick, and
Mr. Chretien resulted in this final memo. A separate proposal
will be made later for the establishment of a guidance committee
to study means by which the Agency "image" can best be put
forward in accordance with paragraph 5. This committee will
have the benefit of the reports called for in paragraph 6. The
makeup of this committee has not yet been agreed but my own
inclination is to avoid using our senior commanders whose time
is already too heavily absorbed by other matters. I would prefer
to use some of our more senior officers who do not have immedi-
ate operating and command responsibilities and possibly with
some assistance from

MEMORANDUM: Handling of Publicity
1. There is hereby established a committee on public
relations under the Chairmanship of Mr. Kirkpatrick and composed
of Messrs. Cline, Helms and Chretien. Each member is authorized
to appoint an alternate to serve thereon in his absence. The purpose
of this committee will be to review and approve all activities in
press relations and the manner in which the CIA policy is to be
implemented.
2. Policy guidance will be is sued from time to time by the
Director or Deputy Director and under no circumstances is to be
changed or modified by either the committee or members of the
organization. Modifications and policy guidance thereto will be
issued by the Director or Deputy Director in written form or
issued orally and covered by implementing memorandum.
3. Press releases for background briefings of either
attributable or unattributable nature are to be coordinated by the
committee chairman and his designees with the White House, Depart-
ment of State, Department of Defense, or any other department or

4. As a general rule in the absence of specific instructions
and coordination with the White House, State and others, CIA
shall make no releases on any of its estimates, analyses, or
reports, whether classified or not. It is considered preferable
that such releases be made by the Department of State or others.
5. The substance of personal contacts with individuals of
the press, either socially or otherwise, should be recorded in
a memorandum for the record as is the Agency's practice.
6. With respect to DCI's desire to create an ''image" of CIA
as carrying its primary responsibility of assembling all intelligence,
its analyses and evaluation, and reporting this to policy makers,
it continues to be my desire that this be done. This can be done
by emphasizing this role as contrasted with the operational role
and by private discussions with our counterparts in Government,
members of Congress, and members of the press on occasion of
meeting them, and with members of the public. It is not necessary
in advancing this responsibility to do anything but refer to the
statutory responsibility in the manner in which this responsibility
was charged. It is not necessary to refer to any of our production
or is it necessary that statements bearing attribution be made.
