Oh, God. I cannot un-picture Carl Bildt shouting after Obama as he drives away in the Presidential motorcade. "That's what you are, Barry, you're a mean girl! You're a bitch!"
His reaction: Reads with a small and proud smile, gets to the part where not so good things are being said about him, he reads it again, and again. Takes off his glasses, pinches his nose, shaking his head. "Can someone get me this document!?"
It's not just the US foreign service and it's certainly not a modern development. This sounds a lot like things I've read in British Foreign Office reports from the forties; it sounds like gossip but it's fairly standard "this is who we're dealing with and this is who we need to worry about" stuff.
