Until recently, a call coming into the Danbury[,CT] Fire Department meant alarms and tones immediately blasting at high volume -- startling the firefighters before they headed out to scenes that could get their hearts pumping even faster. Capt. Kevin Lunnie said the effect could be "overwhelming."

Still, if you want to know why news that the FBI has begun to turn over long-concealed "prohibited access" files to Congress might matter, just ask Seymour Hersh. Fifty-two years ago, on December 21, 1974, the famed muckraker printed "Huge C.I.A. Operation Reported in U.S. Against Antiwar Forces, Other Dissidents In Nixon Years" in the New York Times.

Some sources Racket spoke with this week recalled the case in conjunction with news about the discovery of a cache of secret files at the FBI.
