By what definition of 'whistleblower'?
- venomsnake 11y agoAs someone that exposes irregularities in government activity. Bradley Manning just dumped standard diplomatic cables. Very few of which contained information that was not "diplomacy usual"
- mcv 11y agoThere is a huge difference between Manning and Snowden. While I'm sure Manning meant well, and some of the documents absolutely justified whistleblowing, she was sloppy and careless and simply handed over the entire thing to someone else. Snowden keeps control, works with reliable people, and only releases things that need to be released. Snowden, much more than Manning and Assange, is the kind of hero we need.
