Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term commonly used to describe someone who reports illegal or unethical behavior is a whistleblower. This person may report the behavior to authorities, an organization's management, or the general public. The term "horn blower" may be a derivative of the term whistleblower, but it is not commonly used. "Watch tower sentinel" and "integrity watchdog" may describe roles within an organization for monitoring and reporting behavior, but they are not as commonly used as the term whistleblower to describe an individual who reports illegal or unethical behavior.
