Hey, Sen. Feinstein, Read the New York Times!


According to Politico, California Senator Dianne Feinstein recently said she wasn't aware of reports that the CIA was counting all "military-aged males" as "combatants" when they are killed by US drone strikes, although this was a key revelation in a major New York Times expose on drone strike policy in May, a report that was widely echoed at the time, and the question of whether the CIA is doing this is crucial to understanding whether U.S. officials have told the truth when they have said that civilian casualties from drone strikes have been "exceedingly rare."

Sign our petition urging Dianne Feinstein to get subscriptions to the New York Times for herself and her staff.

To Senator Dianne Feinstein:

We urge you to get subscriptions to the New York Times for yourself and your staff. Just Foreign Policy has agreed to pay for the subscriptions on condition that you and your staff read articles which appear in the New York Times about drone strike policy, as part of your responsibility to oversee drone strike policy as chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
