  • SARAACARTER.COM: THIS IS CNN: Hiring of Suspected Leaker Clapper Raises Ethical Questions
  • Turley: Clapper Has a ‘Serious Problem’ If He Leaked Info to CNN About Dossier.   Constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley said that James Clapper could have a “serious problem” legally if he leaked information to CNN about the Trump-Russia dossier. Clapper, the former director of national intelligence, said in a March 12 CNN interview that he had no contact with anyone from the media until after he left the government. The House Intelligence Committee, though, found in a heavily redacted report that he provided “inconsistent testimony” about his contacts with the media regarding information leaks. Turley said on “Fox & Friends” Monday that if Clapper did in fact inform CNN about the briefing former FBI director James Comey had with the president about the dossier, “then he has a serious problem.” Turley added that Comey told the president that CNN was looking for a “hook” in order to run the story regarding the existence of the salacious dossier. “That hook ultimately became that briefing with Comey. … But CNN reported that high-level people had confirmed this information with them. If one of those individuals is Clapper, then he has a serious problem. He could be accused again of perjury,” said Turley.  Clapper was accused of perjury previously for testimony in March 2013 about mass surveillance by the NSA.
