Yes, this is presumably why 20/20 included the item in the show, as well as the NSA buzzword. The young FBI snitch was bouncing with glee at being on national TV -- after leaving the FBI he's studying to be a media-eroticized lawyer. Better to highlight sexual proclivities of enemies of the state, domestic or global, than investigate and disclose why they succeed in violating piss-poor national security -- or so the 20/20s market. Sexual scandal trumps all, but isn't this the West Coast marketing image shallowness against East Coast faux Euro-depth. Euros and their faux deep thinkers love the western for its bountiful romantic escapism from subtlety. Horses, guns, right and wrong, winners and losers, the USA v. the World. Simple-minded erotic pleasures, silliness writ larger than the wee woeful penis. Hanssen is us, or at least those who harbor dreams of conquest.

NSA Show Sexually Arouses Hanssen
The 20/20 TV show on December 27, 2002 had a segment on Robert Hanssen, FBI spy, in which he is described as becoming sexually aroused by a National Security Agency PowerPoint presentation and stroked himself through his pants, according to Eric O'Neill, a young FBI agent who had been assigned to covertly report on Hanssens's activities. (The show transcript omits the stroking description and demonstration on camera by O'Neill.) Crypome invites information on which NSA presentation aroused Hanssen, and a copy of it for publication.
