Mainstream media perpetuates myths about government activity

Published on May 13, 2014

What were once thought of as conspiracy theories about government spying are now backed up by facts, according to Coleen Rowley. The FBI whistleblower and 2002 Time Person of the Year believes the National Security Agency spying scandal has provided crucial insights to the public on how not only the US government, but all governments work. The mainstream media perpetuates certain myths that conceal the truth of what goes on behind closed doors, but the American people now have a better view of the truth, according to Rowley. RT's Ameera David spoke to the whistleblower and activist to get her insights into the impact of the NSA scandal and continuing revelations.
