White House Blows Cover of CIA Chief in Afghanistan by William Cummings, USA Today
The White House accidentally blew the cover of the top CIA officer in Afghanistan Saturday, when his name and title were released in an e-mail sent to reporters who traveled with President Obama on his surprise visit to Bagram Air Field.
The CIA officer's identity was released as part of a list of U.S. officials who were attending a military briefing with Obama at Bagram, the Washington Post reported.
The individual was identified as "Chief of Station," a term used for the top spy in a country, according to the Post.
