Maybe the guy just meant he was a member of "Canadian Institute of Actuaries", or "Caught In the Act", or "Christians In Action", or "Clowns In Action", or "Compassion In Action", or "Culinary Institute of America", or one of
these other real or imagined "CIA" organizations around the world.
(And, now, maybe someone should investigate Cavuto to see if he is really a genuine "Cavuto Interviewer/Analyst" ("CIA") news host.)
He was not an agent. He claimed (or the network claimed) he was an OPERATIVE.
Operatives are like pawns on the chessboard, being run by the Knights.
