WWYW Episode 12 - The Future of American Energy; Blowing the Whistle on "Club Fed"

This is the page to leave comments about Episode 12 of Whistle Where You Work, GAP’s television program. To view the show online, visit www.whistleblowertv.org. Here’s a description of the program:

First, we lead off with a panel discussion on the future of American energy. President Obama has laid out three priorities for his stimulus plans - health care, education and energy. His focus on alternative energy as a way of combating climate change, ending our reliance on oil, and creating a tremendous amount of renewable energy jobs represents a clear break from the past eight years. But how sharp a break is it really? And what role does the Obama administration see nuclear power and clean coal playing in our energy mix? Guests include Robert Alvarez of the Institute for Policy Studies, and Joseph Romm or the Center for American Progress and ClimateProgress.org.

Then, we sit down with Randy Taylor, who gained prominence as a whistleblower in 1991, when his disclosure sparked the closing of a Bermuda Naval Air Station - a “Club Fed” for naval brass and a few prominent politicians. This segment was filmed during the annual National Whistleblower Assembly, held in Washington D.C. in March 2009.

This episode was filmed in early March 2009
