Did you say career ending moment? I think I misread that. Who wants a former employee and their lawyers targeting your reputation. Do you know anything about what whistleblowers have to go through?

We’re talking about professional journalists here. I’m quite sure they’re aware of it all. If the story is newsworthy and backed by evidence you’d be able to take it to any competing newspaper. I imagine the Wall Street Journal’s legal team would be happy to bear the brunt of any fallout, it’s their job.
