Learning about the Church Committee
Via Ackerman, a very good, not-too-lengthy article on government secrecy and how the Church Committee worked to reign it in in the 1970s. Very much worth reading if you are at all interested in government secrecy/civil liberties issues and the current political dilemma facing the White House about whether to pursue investigations into Bush-era abuses.
