Expanded CIA check sparks Senate C IA oversight clash
The Senate fight over broadening CIA oversight continues as Sen. Richard Russell blocks a proposed expansion to include Foreign Relations Committee members. Fulbright backs a compromise to add three members, arguing current oversight is superficial and misses key operations. Russell admits limited knowledge of the Cuba invasion and criticizes leaks while calling for tighter security. Kennedy later expressed regret over the Bay of Pigs and questioned whether coverage served national security. The Center Champion in Texas comments on editors balancing national security with news.
