there's a lot of vague interpretations that are doing a lot of work there. i disagree with you.

that Wikileaks doesn't deserve first amendment freedoms. you don't have to write about or expound upon leaked documents to deserve press freedoms if you're publishing them.

I'm in the UK. We have a fairly narrow definition here of what constitutes the press. I've never seen any reporting by Assange, just first person stuff. He's an egomaniac, not a journalist.

You should revisit your assumptions. The UK Courts have recognised he is a journalist, and WikiLeaks a media organisation. If you ahven't found any essays or reporting by Assange, you haven't looked. Here's one.https://gizmodo.com/gizmodo-exclusive-read-julian-assanges-introduction-to-1726605781 …

So you're chief cheerleader for Assange? And my "assumptions" - which by the way were conclusions that I don't usually talk about – are up for questioning? When is he coming out of the embassy?

Your assumption you wrote yourself 'narrow definition of what constitutes the press'. Well, your courts have made that clear. He is a journalist. I call out bullshit and contrast them with facts. So in that sense, I am a chief cheerleader of the truth. What are you cheerleading?

Not by my definition. I'm genuinely curious about what would motivate someone to attach themself to his cause. Was it the rape accusations? The cowardice? The abusing of hospitality? Is this something you aspire to?

I see we are in the realm of the subjective now. Thanks for clarifying that. It's very satisfying to debunk such smears with court filings and other official documents. You should try primary source material sometime.

Julian Assange deserves first amendment protections under US law. He's also a partisan hack who no moral compass who believes that radical transparency is only fit for his political opponents, and he enables white nationalists around the world.
