'via Blog this' "In an article dated January 19 entitled,"When Did Whistleblowers Become the Bad Guys?" author Kevin Mathews says that the demonization of whistleblowers is growing in the business world.

While laws are supposedly in place to protect those who do step forward, too often they fall short: airline employees who brought attention to insufficient safety inspections were demoted to desk jobs. A miner who reported illegal, unsafe work conditions (which would lead to a coworker fatality the following day) is being held criminally responsible. A former Wells Fargo employee who exposed the bank’s practice of targeting minority communities with high-interest loans is now having her home fraudulently foreclosed on by the same bank in an apparent act of retaliation.""
