So what is the difference between someone who is a "whistleblower" and someone who is a "leaker" or "violating a person's privacy", etc?

Positive adjectives for those who agree with one side and negatives for those who disagree.

Now try a "sunshine" law for campaign donations....including those from unions, trial lawyers, MSM, etc who hide behind shams.

I'd say the difference would be mainly in the area of the reason for releasing the information and what sort of gain or loss is expected for doing so.

C-SPAN radio is covering this hearing but I don't know if it will be archived yet.
