NOVA # 3602 The Spy Factory
9:00pm Wednesday, February 04
For the first time on television, NOVA exposes the hidden world of
high-tech, 21st-century eavesdropping carried out by the National Security
Agency (NSA). Today, the NSA is the world’s largest intelligence agency,
three times the size of the CIA and far more secret. Its mission is to
eavesdrop on the world — from cell phones in Europe to pay phones in
Afghanistan to email messages from Pakistan to Baghdad. Since 9/11, NSA
has listened in without warrant on thousands of American citizens. Based
on the latest best-seller by journalist James Bamford. (Closed Captioning)
