Is it correct for McLaughlin to appear in the series box as a Director of Central Intelligence? Unlike Tenet or Goss, he hasn't gone through the appointment/confirmation process, which would make me think he's always been the Deputy Director, who gets to act as Director as long as the position is empty. There are other gaps in the timeline of DCIs where this presumably happened but the Acting Director is not inserted in the sequence. BCoates 08:45, 7 Nov 2004 (UTC)
I removed text saying that McLaughlin had resigned on November 22, "citing confrontations with Goss' newly appointed chief of staff, Patrick Murray". In fact, McLaughlin announced his retirement on November 12, and did so, using McLaughlin's own words, as a "purely personal decision", according to the New York Times. - Walkiped 06:04, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)
