Ms. Greenhouse is calling on all Americans to support whistleblower protection for federal employees.

So much poor procedure tho, such as recent findings that head of Air Force J. Jumper and friends were routing public spending to a retired friend without using the usual bid process, and like the firing of Bunny Greenhouse for whistleblowing about Pentagon spending, indicates an attitude of disregard for ethics that is completely despicable. The Congress has failed in its oversight duties, and the military heirarchy seems bereft of ethical standards when public funds are involved. Time for change of administration to one that has a bias toward responsibility instead of self-enrichment.

The problem though is newspapers are making it hard for journalists to survive - I saw fee rates in New York as low as $40 for a story and in the UK they go low too - to levels people can't live on. So even good journalists are being forced to work out what that means. You look at blogs and think OK I can write fast - maybe something will come of that. And you look at nespapers and you think - do I really have it in me to pitch to this one or that one again. I think a lot of us now are half in and half out of the business anyway.

A journalist would take his claims and talk to other people to reach the truth. Yeah right. > It’s his story–his side of things.
