Whistleblower is a one-hour reality television series that was first broadcasted on the CBS network in 2008. The show chronicles the experiences of courageous individuals who risked everything to expose illegal activities and corruption in their workplaces, and the personal and professional challenges they faced as whistleblowers.

Each episode of Whistleblower followed the story of a different individual from various industries, including healthcare, finance, and government agencies. Viewers were introduced to the whistleblower in question, often a former employee or contractor, and given a glimpse into the workplace and the illegal activities that they uncovered. Through interviews with the whistleblower and their friends, family, and colleagues, viewers learned how these brave individuals decided to blow the whistle and the consequences that followed.

Additionally, each episode showed the emotional toll that the whistleblowing process had on the individuals and their families.
