reality winner what did she leak

Reality Winner leaked a classified National Security Agency (NSA) intelligence report in 2017 that revealed Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. The leaked document detailed a Russian hacking operation that accessed voter registration rolls in the United States through an email phishing campaign. She printed the top-secret report at work and mailed it to the news outlet The Intercept. This leak exposed the sources and methods used by U.S. intelligence and brought to light efforts to meddle with the U.S. election process. Reality Winner was arrested and eventually sentenced to over five years in prison for her unauthorized disclosure of classified information, which was the longest sentence for such a leak given to a civilian at the time.
