Morrell who is deputy director of the CIA is part of the CIA, he disagreed with Petraeus it says in the article you linked meaning there was disagreement within the CIA about it.

But the boss wanted more info released, and Morrell deferred to the State Department's concerns about Republicans waiting to use this as political ammo. There were no doubts about Ansar al-Shariah's involvement.

There's nothing in that article about Morrell deferring to the State Department on the issue. It only says Morrell did not want to include the 5 lines and State Department also didn't want the warnings included. 

Excerpt: "It remained unclear why Mr. Morrell objected to the inclusion of the warnings and whether his objections or the State Department’s played the dominant role in having them removed."
