Frederick Hitz is a former Inspector General of the Central Intelligence Agency. He is listed by John Simkin as under 'Disinformation'[1] He criticized the CIA's policy of deliberately lying to its employees, stating that "Somebody who is not clued in could take action on the basis of false information. That’s really playing with fire.”[2]
