The Honorable Walter E. Fauntroy
United States House of Representatives
Washington, D.C. 20515
Dear Mr. Fauntroy,
I read in yesterday's Washington Post that you believe it
possible that some U.S. journalists are in fact CIA agents and
engaged in a conspiracy to frustrate the work of your House
Assassinations Committee.
Let me assure you that there are no working U.S. journalists
employed by the Central Intelligence Agency.
Let me further assure you in the most unequivocal terms
that I will not tolerate any actions by any members of the Central
Intelligence Agency to impede your investigation. On the contrary,,
you will have our most complete cooperation. Please advise me
personally if there is any way in which you feel this is not being
done.
Yours sincerely,
/s/ Stansfield Turna
STANSFIELD TURNER
Admiral, U.S. Navy
