Woman heads CIA spy unit for first time

Another glass ceiling has been cracked at least temporarily with a woman now running the CIA‘s spy division.

The long time CIA veteran leading the National Clandestine Service on an acting basis cannot be publicly named because she is still a covert officer.

The question is whether she will get the job permanently. But her background could be problematic for new CIA boss John Brennan.
