Asked as a former CIA director if he would have listened to Assange or his intelligence officials, Woolsey said he doesn’t think he would have to only listen to CIA analysts.
“I would listen to someone who I think is making a cogent point and doing it with good evidence,” Woolsey said. “I don’t start from the proposition of I’ll listen to X because I like or don’t like him.”
