Salon.com writer Jeff Stein investigates why the head of Ringling Bros.-Barnum & Bailey hired a former top CIA official to spy on and manipulate the life of a free-lance writer. The two-part series documents an eight-year campaign of dirty tricks played on Janice Pottker, a writer who tried to publish stories on child labor abuses in the circus and on Ringling Bros.-Barnum & Bailey Circus owners, the Feld family.
