Shoot the Messenger: Espionage, Murder and Pegasus Spyware concludes its first season with its tenth episode.
Up until now, this show has focused on the use of Pegasus in foreign countries. But while we were in the middle of releasing the episodes of this season, a pair of New York Times journalists published a bombshell report that showed that the US government is making monthly payments to the NSO Group despite the official blacklisting of the company.
Last month, Mark Mazzetti and Ronen Bergman published an article in the New York Times describing the secret deal that occurred between the US government and the NSO Group.
Guests: New York Times Reporters Ronen Bergman and Mark Mazzetti
We'd like to extend a special thanks to the Committee to Protect Journalists for their special collaboration on the first season of Shoot the Messenger. For more information on the status of journalists and freedom of the press - visit at cpj.org.
Shoot the Messenger is hosted by Rose Reid and Nando Vila and is a production of Exile Content Studio.
