Watch: Here’s why accused NSA leaker Reality Winner is back in the news
September 29, 2017
We’re learning more about Reality Winner, the 25-year-old NSA contractor accused of leaking classified information to a website. Federal prosecutors filed a transcript in court this week with Winner’s explanation of how she smuggled the document out – and what set her off.
Winner, who is accused of leaking classified information about Russian cyberattacks on the U.S. election system, listed Fox News as one of her frustrations while working for the NSA.
On Friday’s show, Glenn couldn’t believe the connection she attempted to make in her testimony. “She filed a formal complaint because they had Fox News on at the office?” he asked incredulously.
Politico reported:
"I wasn't trying to be a Snowden or anything," Winner said, referring to NSA leaker Edward Snowden and his massive disclosures of details on U.S. government surveillance. "I guess it's just been hard at work because ... I've filed formal complaint about them having Fox News on, you know? Uh, at least, for God's sake, put Al Jazeera on, or a slideshow with people's pets. I've tried anything to get that changed (emphasis added)."
To see more from Glenn, visit his channel on TheBlaze and watch "The Glenn Beck Radio Program" live weekdays 9 a.m.–noon ET or anytime on-demand at TheBlaze TV.
