When former CIA agent Philip Agee died earlier this week in Cuba, where he fled to escape justice for his betrayal of fellow agents, Reuters eulogized the creep with an article praising him as a “whistle-blower.”
Apparently this didn’t go over well with quite a few readers, and Reuters has recanted their appalling description—after it was all over the world’s newswires for two days.
