Hearings are underway on the case of John Kiriakou, a former CIA official turned whistleblower. He first told the world about waterboarding in secret prisons, but scandals like that might never break again of lawmakers on Capitol Hill have their say. Congress is on a mission to silence journalists from ever publishing classified information and, in fact, want to make doing so a crime under the Espionage Act. Jesselyn Radack, National Security & Human Rights Director of the Government Accountability Project, joins RT's Liz Wahl to explain what that could mean for the freedom of press in America.

A great comment at the end by Jesselyn when answering a question.
on why the crack down on whisleblowers....

After 9/11 there was a secrecy regime put in place by George Bush
because of the national security problems they instigated.....

What great planning to aid in the cover up of their massive crimes !!

This is a Joke. The Politicians/Government officials are scared sh!t of Mr Assange. Scared Sh!t I tell ya. For Julian Assange posesses the final card.

What the DC criminals don't realize is that THE TRUTH is coming out whether they like it (believe it)or not. They're doing their best(?) to keep their dirty deeds hidden. Ain't happening anymore. The DIVINE is involved now....

He might do. It's probable that the US does not know exactly what Assange has. This is what may well be driving them.

There is a great movie on netflix right now about a similar subject, called "Nothing but the Truth."

frantically they compare notes among themselves trying to cover bases , not knowing with any degree of certainty what tracks they need to cover, sanitise ( cos logistically they have so many)

it's thier not knowing that will be thier undoing , in the frenzy mistakes made
