CIA Concludes Crown Prince Ordered Killing

· Leave a Comment

“The CIA has concluded that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered the assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi… The CIA’s assessment is the most definitive to date linking Mohammed to the operation,” the Washington Post reports.

“The CIA’s conclusion about Mohammed’s role was based on multiple sources of intelligence as well as the agency’s assessment of the prince as the country’s de facto ruler who oversees even minor affairs in the kingdom.”

Same Election. Different Stories.

Election Day brings a flood of political news — and which sources you follow can shape the story you see.

That's why I appreciate what Ground News does. It shows how the same story is covered across the political spectrum — and highlights important stories that one side may be ignoring entirely.

And when the votes are counted and everyone starts debating what they mean, it's a useful way to get a broader view.
