Granted, a movie, but something that portrays this well is The Insider (about big tobacco).
Choice quotes:
> Mike Wallace: Who are these people?
> Lowell Bergman: Ordinary people under extraordinary pressure, Mike. What the hell do you expect? Grace and consistency?
And:
> Lowell Bergman: I fought for you and I still fight for you!
> Jeffrey Wigand: You fought for me? You manipulated me! Into where I am now - staring at the Brown & Williamson building, it's all dark except for the tenth floor. That's the legal department, that's where they fuck with my life!
> Lowell Bergman: Jeffrey, where are you going with this? Where are you going? (Pause) You are important to a lot of people, Jeffrey. You think about that, and you think about them.
