Spy Seminar Series: Whistleblowers, Leakers or Traitors? You Decide

Spy Seminar Series

Whistleblowers, Leakers or Traitors? You Decide

Wednesdays September 30 through October 21 at 10:15 AM at the International Spy Museum

Ever since Edward Snowden leaked highly classified information to the media in June of 2013, Americans have been divided on whether he is a hero, a traitor, a conman, or a whistleblower.  But this is not the first time in our history that an individual has ignited such controversy by revealing government secrets.   In this series, intelligence experts and historians will explore the cases of five men who decided to take their data and run, and how the public and government reactions mirror or differ from today’s response to Snowden.
