Tonight "Peter Jennings Reporting: No Place to Hide," produced by Peter Bull for CIR and PJ Productions, airs on ABC at 10 p.m. This investigation uncovers in unnerving detail the post-9/11 marriage of private data services and government anti-terror initiatives. Led by Robert O’Harrow, Jr., award-winning reporter for The Washington Post and an associate of CIR, “No Place to Hide” shows how the government now depends on burgeoning private reservoirs of information about almost every aspect of our lives to protect homeland security and fight the war on terror.
Also today: Read "In Age of Security, Firm Mines Wealth of Personal Data," by Robert O'Harrow, a page 1 story supported by CIR for The Washington Post explaining how a company collecting and selling person information about millions of Americans is transforming itself into a private intelligence service for the national government (registration required):
