'Whistleblower Defense League' created to fight back Obama administration's attacks (VIDEO)

As we've reported before, the Obama administration has reached new heights when it comes to prosecuting whistleblowers.

Under Obama's presidency, seven people have been convicted in accordance with the Espionage Act of 1917 for leaking governmental information to the public.

All previous administrations combined haven't prosecuted that many whistleblowers.

Now, a group of attorneys have come together to form the Whistleblower Defense League to protect such individuals from legal action.

One of those attorneys, Jay Leiderman, discusses why they felt it was necessary to create this group.
