Translators and national security
An article in the New York Times suggests the FBI is still underperforming in its translation project management... And there's worse! See fired FBI translator Sibel Edmonds denouncing incompetence and corruption at the agency on CBS's 60 minutes. Then compare and contrast with the case of Katherine Gun, the GCHQ whistleblower whose anti-war leanings got the better of her non-disclosure obligations.

About Me
- John
- I'm a British national with close ties to France and a fascination with America. Working as a translator and editor in Paris, I developed a specialisation in corporate and marketing communications for the defence, aerospace and high-tech industries. For ten years I have managed E-Files, Inc., an international network of business and technical communicators who share my background in multilingual marketing and corporate communications. We believe that teamwork between specialised translators and editors, marketing professionals and subject matter experts is the key to developing compelling multilingual content for print, web and multimedia. Corporate responsibility reporting has been my particular area of focus for several years, with clients in both the defence sector and the regulated lottery and gaming industry.
