Safest way to talk but get info out is "deep background" by which


reporter gets to understand the situation and you give them info you want out but they cannot even, supposedly, say a source in X agency stated, etc. And you have to agree ahead of time. Remember one instance in Watergate where someone gave info and then tried to say it was on deep background and were reminded that that was not the way it worked.
