Interviews from Washington DC - Whistleblower Denounces CIA Torture

Society owes a debt to whistleblowers who have exposed high-level government misconduct. But they have paid a high price for doing so. In today's program, host Jorge Gestoso interviews former CIA analyst John Kiriakou who, following his denunciations of the Agency's use of torture, was jailed, placed under house arrest, and is now in "supervised release". Kiriakou discusses the CIA's use of torture, his own experiences with the U.S. justice system, the role of the media, and the place of whistleblowers and government moves against them. teleSUR
