      They pay to ideological quite well too . If you have a mole in CIA, you want to keep him happy. But information has to be real or at least seem to be real. "The bureau chief in Belgrade we all called Slovak the Butcher. He had very little rapport with his staff ..." was just worthless crap. Even though they probably ran it and all bank statesments thru some supercomputer in case there was deep coded messages human wouldnt notice .
