White House Press Secretary Jay Carney has said that no one would receive the government's 25 million dollar reward money for finding Osama bin Laden, because no one intentionally directed U.S. intelligence officials to the al Qaeda leader.

"As far as I'm aware, no one knowledgeably said, 'Oh, Osama bin Laden's over here in Abbottabad at 5703, you know, Green Avenue," CBS News quoted Carney, as saying.
Carney said that the reward isn't given if someone "accidentally" provides the necessary information through the intelligence gathering process.
In 2001, the US State Department offered a 25 million dollars reward for information about Osama's whereabouts.
In 2004, then Senator Hillary Clinton pushed for the passage of a bill that would allow the Secretary of State, the position she now holds, to authorize as much as 50 million dollars as a prize.
