Because our tens of thousands of readers come to us for specialized reporting, analysis and insights about the U.S. intelligence community that’s tailored to already pretty well informed consumers of world news and politics—who want more, and better.

As we like to say: “SpyTalk sits at the intersection of U.S. intelligence, foreign policy, and military operations.”

We think that makes us pretty unique.

But don’t just take our word. See what other esteemed intelligence insiders and journalists have to say about us.

Ilana Berry, former CIA case officer, lawyer and now acclaimed first-time novelist— has done a lot in her handful of decades on this Earth. And she’s a longtime SpyTalk fan.

“SpyTalk is my news wellspring for all things espionage,” she says. “Deep, thoughtful, balanced coverage, plus interesting angles and insider perspectives you rarely find in mainstream media.”

“It's singular,” she raves on. “There's literally no other news source I know of that's so focused on intelligence-related news."

Last summer Berry’s debut novel, The Peacock and the Sparrow, arrived to enthusiastic notices. But that was just the start. In short order it would be named a best book of the year by both The New Yorker and NPR, and nominated for an Edgar Award (the highest honor in the mystery book world, named after that Raven guy) in the category of Best First Novel.

Now comes Ray Bonner, the acclaimed foreign correspondent and investigative reporter for The New York Times, staff writer at The New Yorker and contributor to The New York Review of Books.

Why do we say SpyTalk is “Intelligence for Thinking People”?
