obviously whistleblowing is a fools errand. however that's what the press is for. unfortunately "investigative reporting" is on the way out, because of the expense and also the implicit hindering of "access". but Salon is already doing this - sort of. how about making it a department? initially just to collect diverse complaints. it will of necessity, grow slowly - that is good. it is expensive. after few high profile cases the advertising will be done by someone else and it could perhaps become a permanent (and very much needed) fixture. online journalism has certain advantages that print and media don't. i think this could be one of these.
