Arlen Specter (R-Pa.), chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, the Pentagon had changed its mind about allowing five Able Danger personnel to testify publicly in the committee’s probe of the data-mining operation. Specter’s statement said they would testify at a committee hearing Oct. 5. That’s news to Pentagon Spokesman Bryan Whitman.

A spokesman said the two parties had reached an agreement. And, the hearing will be public.
