Ex-CIA Agent, Whistleblower John Kiriakou Sentenced to Prison While Torturers He Exposed Walk Free | Democracy Now!

"I believe I’m going to prison because I blew the whistle on torture," said former CIA agent John Kiriakou.

"I’ve been a thorn in the CIA’s side since that interview in 2007, in which I said that waterboarding was torture and that it was official U.S. government policy. And I think, finally, the Justice Department caught up with me."

Kiriakou's appearance on Democracy Now! in January ranks #8 on our list of the most-viewed interviews of 2013.
