“she was given the longest prison sentence ever imposed …”

[edit]

This is misleading due to her charges not being comparable to other whistleblowers like Bradley Manning who received far longer sentences for leaking classified material to the media. So the phrasing is misleading and betrays others who suffered more severely.

It should be rephrased something like “given the longest prison sentence for the charge of willful retention and transmission of national defense information, though other accused whistleblowers were charged with more severe crimes for their offense” Tonymetz (talk) 21:39, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Probably, but Manning wasn't a whistleblower. 2601:40D:4300:6F60:6924:C09F:E7A4:61AF (talk) 02:48, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That is beside the point - I personally do not consider Manning a whistleblower, but the sentence in this arficle talks about leaking secret government information to the media; it does not qualify the circumstances surrounding the leaking. Manning got 35 years. It is wildly misleading to state that Winner's sentence was the longest ever imposed. 2A02:AA7:4040:A838:31DB:1C29:7C1F:1239 (talk) 08:47, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
