Fmr. Obama CIA Chief: Torture Report ‘Deeply Flawed;’ Main Conclusions ‘Simply Wrong’

Fmr. Obama CIA Chief: Senate Dem Report is ‘Deeply Flawed’ (Washington Free Beacon)

Former acting Director of the CIA Mike Morell remained forthright during an interview Wednesday about the newly released CIA documents.

Morell served as Director of the CIA under the Obama administration from 2012 to 2013. When asked how he would characterize the CIA report, Morell said it contained many flaws.

“This is a deeply flawed report and it’s flawed in two ways,” Morell told Norah O’Donnell and Charlie Rose.  “One is that many of its main conclusions are simply wrong. For example, ‘not effective’? Not true. They lied to Congress, to the Department of Justice, simply not true. The Republicans agree with that.”
