There is/was a lot of preparation before going public as a
whistleblower. You have to make contacts in the press and work with them
to ensure the story gets published at all, nevermind keeping it focused
on the facts and not on yourself as the press is wont to do.  That takes
time, during which you could be noticed, tracked down and silenced.
