Today's guest is Dr. Daniel Ellsberg and he is a former military analyst for the Rand Corporation who released the highly controversial political documents that led to the unveiling of secrets and motivations, cover-ups, behind the Vietnam war. His publication of the Pentagon Papers ultimately contributed to Watergate and the removal of President Nixon.

This year, a documentary about him and the Pentagon Papers – “The Most Dangerous Man in America” was nominated for an Oscar.
