Note from the Story Producer:
One of our favorite video genres as of late is “print tons of documents and highlight all the bad stuff in them.” That’s exactly what we did with Insider Trading, a piece in which we attempt to show the extent of Congress using closed-to-the-public intelligence briefings and classified info to play the stock market and enrich themselves. We knew things were bad, but what we found turned out to be much much worse than even we expected, and if nothing else, made us very very angry.
