  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Whistleblower of the Week podcast, host Jane Turner speaks with
    former intelligence contractor Reality Winner.

    Motivated to act on a belief that the American public was not getting the full truth.
    Winner leaked a top-secret NSA report on the Russian government’s attempts to hack a Florida-based voting software supplier ahead of the 2016 election to the news media.
    Winner and Turner discuss her background, motivations, and how the Espionage Act
    should be modified to give it more nuance. They also talk about the harsh sentence
    handed down by the court and the impact her choices made on her life today. Winner
    encourages would-be whistleblowers to use legal reporting channels.

    Winner was the first person to be prosecuted, and later sentenced, under the Trump
    administration for defying the Espionage Act.
