> I really hope that due process is involved
Outside of civil service jobs, in the US there are no “due process” rights in employment decisions; what process is due is a matter of employment contract (which for non-unionized rank-and-file, and even non-executive management, employees usually means no process is due, because of “at-will” employment.)
Given that, and given that employers are legally bound to prevent retribution against reporters, anonymity for reporters is strongly incentivized.
