Newsweek: Foggo Admitted Tipping Pal To Contracts?

Newsweek's Mark Hosenball reports:

[A] source has told NEWSWEEK that [CIA #3 Kyle "Dusty"] Foggo had acknowledged to associates that he may have tipped off [childhood friend, briber, poker-party-thrower and former defense contractor Brent] Wilkes that CIA contracts were coming up for bid -- an activity which, according to the source, Foggo said was neither improper nor illegal. The source is close to a group of poker players who took part in a 1999 game arranged by Wilkes and attended by Foggo, Cunningham and a nine-fingered former CIA officer named Brant Bassett, who worked for Goss when the outgoing CIA chief was House Intelligence Committee chair. Foggo denies giving Wilkes any such tip-offs, according to another source close to the outgoing CIA official; Bassett and lawyers for Wilkes and Cunningham had no comment.

Hosenball also reports the CIA has made an internal announcement that Dusty will retire.
