10. Things Fall Apart

1. Quoted in Carl Bernstein, “The CIA and the Media,” Rolling Stone, 20 October 1977, 57, 60. The loyalty cut both ways: when Alsop became the victim of a homosexual “honey-trap” by the KGB during a visit to the Soviet Union in 1957, the foreign policy establishment closed ranks around him, Wisner in particular helping to protect him from the attentions of the FBI. See Robert D. Dean, Imperial Brotherhood: Gender and the Making of Cold War Foreign Policy (Amherst: University of Massachusetts Press, 2001), pp. 157–158.

Norton, 1989); Leann Grabavoy Almquist, Joseph Alsop and American Foreign Policy: The Journalist as Advocate (Lanham, Md.: University Press of America, 1993); Edwin M.
