In an article published on Sunday 12 March, The Chicago Tribune disclosed that it had discovered the identities of "more than 2,600 CIA employees, 50 internal agency telephone numbers and the locations of some two dozen secret CIA facilities around the United States."

Some of those exposed were supposedly secret agents, but the information was freely available on searching in an online database accessed on paying a subscription.

Searching aviation databases for flights landing or taking off from the small airstrip at the CIA's training facility at Camp Peary revealed 17 aircraft whose ownership and flight histories could also be traced.

Unfortunately, the Trib has not published details of just how it found the classified information.
