Thomas Cornelius Mangold (born 20 August 1934) is a British broadcaster, journalist and author. For 26 years he was an investigative journalist with the BBC Panorama television program. He joined BBC TV News in 1964 to be a war correspondent covering conflicts in Aden, Vietnam, Nigeria, Northern Ireland, the Middle East and Afghanistan. In 1971 he moved to BBC TV Current Affairs, becoming involved in some of the first investigative news documentaries of the BBC. In 1993 he won the Business / Consumer Investigative Reports category in the CableACE Award and the Royal Television Society's Journalism Award. In 1996 he won the bronze award in the Best Investigative Report Category at the New York Television Festival and in 1999 he won Investigative Reporting/News Documentary category in the Chicago International Television Competition. Cold Warrior: James Jesus Angleton: The CIA's Master Spy Hunter is about James Jesus Angleton, who served as the head of the Central Intelligence Agency's Counterintelligence Staff from 1954 until 1974. The book is based on interviews, many of them attributed, instead of documentary evidence. Writing in The Washington Post, Charles R. Babcock praised Mangold's research, calling his book "a major revision in the history of American espionage." In The New York Times, Joseph Finder hailed Cold Warrior as "fascinating and superbly researched." Raymond L. Garthoff of the Brookings Institution stated that in regard to Angleton the book is the "best and most complete and accurate account so far." CIA Chief Historian David Robarge stated that the book is "the most factually detailed, thoroughly researched study of Angleton." Counterintelligence specialist Cleveland Cram highlighted Mangold's research and called Cold Warrior "an honest and accurate book." Derived from a Kirkus review: Among the top men who kept the CIA's secrets during the height of the cold war was James Jesus Angleton, chief of counterintelligence. Whether the austere and obsessive operative did more harm than good is the central issue in this evenhanded but unsparing biography by Mangold. Drawing on interviews with Angleton's associates, friends, enemies, and widow plus unclassified archival material, Mangold offers an arresting portrait. A veteran of WW II's OSS, Angleton decided to make a career of intelligence and signed on with the CIA when it opened for business in 1947. Chosen by Allen Dulles in 1954 to become the agency's first counterspy, he tackled his new assignment with a missionary fervor. Over the next two decades, this true believer pursued a single-minded agenda based on a series of interlocking assumptions holding, for example, that the Sino-Soviet split was a delusion, that monolithic Communism aimed at nothing less than world dominion, and that the Kremlin's moles abounded in Western capitals. Angleton conducted witch hunts, betrayed field agents, provoked allied intelligence services, rejected virtually all defectors as KGB plants, and hobbled crucial CIA campaigns against the USSR. Yet, this ultrasuspicious man was completely gulled by Great Britain's Kim Philby and Anatoli Golitsyn, a low-level but like-minded refugee from the Soviet Union. N° de réf. du vendeur 91043
