{"value"=>"<p>Four folders: (1) 1981-1986 (2) 1980 (3) 1977-1979 (4) 1971-1976 These four folders contain letters, memoranda and other papers about CIA policies and activities and The Times 's reports on these. A few documents pertaining to intelligence activities generally, i.e., not limited to the CIA, are included. The principal issues discussed are: AMR's freedom-of-information request for any documents mentioning him (1980-1983). Legislation barring the identification of CIA agents, opposed by The Times as too broad (1981-1982). The CIA's policy on the use of journalists in gathering intelligence (1976-1981). The papers include: memoranda on the question of seeking information on any involvement of Times personnel or stringers with the CIA under the Freedom of Information Act or by other legal means (1976-1977, 1980); AMR's memorandum on his interview with Pres. Carter and his and AOS's correspondence with CIA Dir. Turner on the issue of using journalists (1980); an anonymous pamphlet listing journalists linked to the CIA (1978); memoranda on a Times series on CIA and the press (1977-1978). The Glomar Explorer project (raising a sunken Soviet missile submarine) and the <span class=\"title\">Times</span> 's decision to delay publication of Seymour Hersh's story on it (1975, 1978). CIA role in assassinations, and Pres. Ford's off-the-record comment on this (1975). Seymour Hersh's series on the CIA's covert domestic activities (1974-1975).</p>"}
