There is no substitute for looking at primary documents and real-time work product to understand how people's minds were actually working in history.
In October 2020 the FBI declassified a 94-page spreadsheet that it used to track its analysts efforts to corroborate the so-called Steele dossier of allegations against then-Presidential candidate Donald Trump. The spreadsheet was referenced by FBI Inspector General Horowitz in a report that sharply criticized the FBI for its handling of the Dossier. Reporting on the released spreadsheet noted that it relied heavily on media reporting, some of which in turn relied on leaks from ... the Steele dossier. Commentators also observed that the corroboration analysis relied heavily on Steele's primary subsource, Igor Danchenko. The spreadsheet does not note that Danchenko had previously been suspected of being a Russian spy by the FBI.
