You mean Valerie Plame. There’s an ever so slight difference between purposely outing a CIA agent as revenge for undermining the validity of falsified evidence being used as justification to invade a country that didn’t actually attack us and accidentally outing one. Plame was outed due to malicious intent. The Afghan Chief of Station was outed due to stupidity.
Just a little note: the “Station Chief” is primarily an administrator, supervisor, and manager, not a field operative. It’s likely that anybody in Kabul that wanted to know, already knew who he was, but that still doesn’t excuse THE MILITARY for letting this media notice go out.
