Returning to the "Unauthorized Disclosure" weekly podcast, CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou helps Kevin Gosztola what will happen next to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Many believe extradition to the United States could be imminent.
John also reflects on his mentor and friend Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, who died last week. John shares an incredible story about Ellsberg from 2016. It involves a PEN America awards ceremony in Beverly Hills and acclaimed director Francis Ford Coppola.
Kevin and John also highlight a remarkable example of media malpractice from US media pundits David Brooks and Jonathan Capehart, who used the death of Ellsberg to further their attacks on NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden.
