The idea of this article is to make 100% clear that the burden is on the employer to suggest that a person is NOT a whistle-blower and that the burden is on them to prove that any consequences potentially faced by a whistle-blower are not related to his or her disclosure - perhaps we need to reword it to make it clearer though.

I am concerned about any measures being taken against a whistle-blower: I believe it would make disclosure by whistle-blowers too risky to themselves, and act as a disincentive. (Here I am thinking of the WikiLeaks case.)
Unless (perhaps) it is unambiguously clear that the whistle-blower was/is acting maliciously, without regard for truth?
