CIA boss rips Harvard

- Jessica Chia

CIA DIRECTOR Mike Pompeo skipped a scheduled appearance Thursday at Harvard University and blasted the school for offering a fellowship to Chelsea Manning, the former military intelligen­ce analyst who spent seven years in prison for leaking classified government secrets.

“Harvard’s actions,” he said, “implicitly tell its students that you too can be a fellow at Harvard and a felon under United States law . . . . I believe it is shameful for Harvard to place its stamp of approval upon her treasonous actions.”
