In a special WWYW episode, we sit down for a lengthy conversation with Dr. Jeffrey Wigand, noted tobacco whistleblower and subject of the movie The Insider. In 1995, Dr. Wigand achieved national prominence when he became the tobacco industrys highest ranking former executive to address public health and smoking issues.

The episode was filmed in March 2009 during the National Whistleblowers Assembly.

First, cut the first 7 minutes out. Second, I like the info, but listening to these two talk is VERY taxing. The interviewer needs to keep Wigand on the freaking topic and stop him from rambling about things that have little bearing on the main point. - This is what happens when two A-type personalities are on camera. YAWN!

And Wikileaks follows the blazing trail of telling the truth to power.
