The Bloomberg story, my thinking is that it was probably true, but someone from national security forced them to clam up.

For the CIA or NSA or whomever quashing that story is a good short-term solution (protecting your spy IP - spy P?) and also medium-term (harming Bloomberg's reputation), but the longer term side-effects (harming media's reputation in general) probably ended up doing far greater harm to the US. Trust is so easy to destroy, and takes a very long time to build up again.
