Odd they referred to these other whistleblowers as "Former NSA Employees" in the headline. It seems disingenuous to leave that out of the headline, but then I suppose "Fellow NSA Whistleblowers Praise Newest Whistleblower..." probably doesn't sound as interesting.

It actually makes more sense to mention just "Former NSA Employees" as they were not whistleblowers per se. They went by the book and never went public the way Snowden did.
