  1. TOUGH LOVE The Washington Post Sunday, August 22, 1999 B7 David Ignatius New Guy At the CIA In all these ways, Tenet sounds like the kind of boss you’d want to work for if you were a spy. But to make the CIA a great intelligence service again, Tenet will have to be more than a coach and cheerleader. The agency needs tough love. Weiner Loeb Bohn Devine Wilson Steele
