Media mostly ignore Brennan’s remark about ‘appalling’ leaks

Published May 24, 2017 5:29pm ET



The media gave little attention to former CIA Director John Brennan’s remark on Tuesday, when he said he was “very concerned” about “very, very damaging” leaks that have also drawn complaints from President Trump.

Brennan made the comment during the hours-long hearing on investigations into Russia’s meddling in the election, which mostly focused on whether there was any collusion between Moscow and President Trump’s campaign. But he was also asked about the leaks of confidential information that have been damaging to the Trump administration, and said those leaks should also be investigated.
