This week on the Beyond the Byline podcast we are talking about the wiretapping scandal in Greece. Investigative and financial journalist Thanasis Koukakis explains why he was monitored by the Greek government; how did it happen? And how did we get to the revelation of the "Greek Watergate."

And MEP Stelios Kouloglou tells us why exposing the wiretapping scandal is important, what’s the Commission’s role and what does it mean for the country’s press freedom and the government.
