NPR's Chitra Ragavan reports on an effort by eight officials of the FBI and the CIA to overcome the two agencies' longstanding inability to work closely together on espionage issues. The Justice Department reported this week that lack of communication between the two agencies was in part responsible for delaying capture of U.S. spy Aldrich Ames. The group of eight has found that despite very different cultures, the FBI and CIA can greatly benefit by sharing information.
