Naomi Vosburgh

Naomi spent seven years writing about national security before she started noticing how much of the story was being managed rather than reported. She has reviewed thousands of declassified documents, interviewed former intelligence officers, and developed a working knowledge of the specific ways that state secrecy is used not to protect national interests but to protect institutional ones. She approaches official denials the way a good mechanic approaches a strange noise — as a starting point, not a conclusion.
