What do whistleblowers face today?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with Daniel Ellsberg, the former marine and military analyst who exposed the Pentagon Papers revealing the U.S. government's lies about Vietnam. Ellsberg is the subject of the recent Oscar-nominated film, The Most Dangerous Man in America. We'll also be joined by environmental whistleblowers. What price have they paid for speaking out and speaking truth to power? And who's listening? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar.

Guests:
Daniel Ellsberg, whistleblower for the Pentagon Papers and subject of the new Oscar-nominated film, The Most Dangerous Man in America.

Dan Lawn, consultant for the Alaska Forum for Environmental Responsibility, former supervisor for the State of Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation

Scott West, retired EPA agent and currently with the Department of Intelligence and Investigations at the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society
