US; the Attack on whistleblowers

Government spies on federal agencies' staffers

Last month several employees at the Food and Drug Administration were revealed to be the target of a major surveillance program by their employer after it got out they were reporting concerns they had to lawmakers and other officials.

Now as it turns out that the FDA is not alone. The US has spent billions to "safeguard classified information" and it's been reported that at least one dozen federal agencies have adopted monitoring software to watch every action their employees perform.

Jesselyn Radack of the Government Accountability Project talks more about the increasing surveillance of government employees as the war on whistleblowers continues.
