Blowing the Whistle, Paying the Price
b'
Heroes to many, traitors to some. The internet has put whistleblowers in the public eye, and the government\\u2019s crosshairs. With increased access to classified information, and the ability to spread it, the world\\u2019s biggest institutions are running scared and cracking down.
\\nOn this week\\u2019s show, we hear about the whistleblowers we don\\u2019t see on the nightly news. They\\u2019re not named Manning or Snowden, they\\u2019re ordinary people who report wrongdoing at their place of employment, and pay the consequences.
