The Obama administration has prosecuted more whistlblowers than any other president in US history, making America one of the most dangerous places for those who expose government crimes. Kevin Gosztola, editor of ShadowProof.com and journalist who covers whistleblowers, joins Mnar Muhawesh to discuss one forgotten whistlblower whose fate has landed her in prison with a very harsh punishment: Chelsea Manning. Gosztola discusses why human rights organizations like Amnesty International don't consider her a political prisoner and why the media is choosing ad hominem attacks when addressing any whistleblowers.
