[lit-ideas] Re: NYT in the news again

Andy: Whatever happened to Laurie Mylroie, the conspiracy theorist about Hussein
and 9/11? I wonder if she wasn't a paid hack to push the idea (paid by
whom, the NYT isn't telling), or if she smelled a best seller and threw one
together.

Eric: Laurie Mylroie was adviser on Iraq to the 1992 campaign of Bill Clinton. How about that? Small world.

Here's her bio (from http://www.benadorassociates.com/mylroie.php).

Dr. Mylroie received her Ph.D. in Political Science from Harvard University and her B.A. from Cornell. She was an Assistant Professor in Harvard's Political Science Department, before becoming an Associate Professor in the Strategy Department at the U.S. Naval War College. Subsequently, she was a member of the staff of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. She also served as advisor on Iraq to the 1992 Clinton presidential campaign and has worked as a consultant on terrorism to the Departments of Defense and Energy; ABC News, the BBC, and Newsweek; as well as several law offices. She is presently an adjunct fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and publisher of Iraq News.
