RAW STORY - VIDEO: Whistleblower uses YouTube to tell his story

WAPO: Michael De Kort was frustrated.

The 41-year-old Lockheed Martin engineer had complained to his bosses. He had told his story to government investigators. He had called congressmen.

But when no one seemed to be stepping up to correct what he saw as critical security flaws in a fleet of refurbished Coast Guard patrol boats, De Kort did just about the only thing left he could think of to get action: He made a video and posted it on YouTube.com.

Is he for real? Is there merit? Anyone with a Steelcase desk and opposable thumbs can resonate, I'm sure. Based on his account in the flick, he's tried every channel and procedural remedy short of an appeal to the Pope. "We support the troops"? I guess he said, WTF.

Tom Paine must be high-fiving Ben Franklin right about now. [Forgot to add to the high-five comment that whadaya bet we have Symposia, corporate counsel ABA retreats, CNBC and BizWeek stories on this one to equal the frenzy of JonBenet?]
