Crackdown on "whistleblowers"?

Regarding the line "part of President Barack Obama's crackdown on whistleblowers and 'leakers'", I'm fairly certain the administration would say they are cracking down on leakers but not whistleblowers (or that any whistleblowers they are prosecuting were also leakers). One is considered a crime, one isn't. This phrasing assumes a conclusion or at the very least embraces a spin on the issue. After reading 3 of the cited articles (17 is either down or a dead link) I see no quote which supports that the administration is cracking down on "whistleblowers" and again, it would be surprising to see one as that assumes a certain conclusion. 64.233.222.89 (talk) 12:02, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
