From the article you linked to:
"Intelligence officials said they ?saw the information, especially the video, as the stuff of tabloid gossip pages, not intelligence collection.?"
"The operative?s ?eagerness? to provide them with the supposed damaging information, those officials said, led them to suspect he was attempting to bait them into stoking animosity between the American intelligence community and the president as part of a Russian operation to sow division within the U.S. government."
