The extradition request was not decided on press freedom grounds; rather, the judge essentially ruled the US prison system was too repressive to extradite. However, the result will protect journalists everywhere.

The case against Julian Assange is the most dangerous threat to US press freedom in decades. This is a huge relief to anyone who cares about the rights of journalists.https://twitter.com/FreedomofPress/status/1346050251560525824 …

US press freedom? World Press Freedom, that is. Remember Assange is NOT an American, Wikileaks is NOT American, ANY journo in the world who exposes US war crimes is still in danger.

if a member of "the press," a "journalist," or "reporter" hacks and leaks government files, top secret or otherwise, especially foreign adversaries, like assange, they are NOT heroes they are criminals
-
the leaks came from the US military. assange just reported them. and Assange is not a US citizen, nor was he in the US during any of this. none of that makes him a criminal. it sounds like he was doing his job despite the danger. wouldn't that make him a hero?

But goes against Trump's "Snitches get stitches" approach to life. I could be wrong but surely all Assange is actually guilty of its exposing wrong doing
