Week 3 Discussion Whistle-BlowersThe term whistle blower was originated by consumer advocate Ralph Nader to characterize employees who disclosed illegal, immoral, or illegitimate practices by their employers. Since the terror attacks on September 11, 2001, one of the more famous government whistle blowers has been Colleen Rowley, the FBI agent whose letter to Director Robert Mueller about the FBI’s lack of response to possible terrorist threats in the U.S. led to a storm of criticism of the bureau’s management. Rowley asked for federal whistle-blower protection in her memo because she feared that she would be terminated. This Discussion focuses on whistle blower statutes and whether or not they provide adequate protection from reprisal to employees who make such disclosures.For this Discussion, review this week’s Resources.
