Except in this case the opposite happened.
In any case, if fake email thing was meant to discredit WL, it failed, in part bc Macron blabbed abt it first, & was too quick in statement
-
-
Not directly aimed at WL, but at hackers who have other choices of other distrib channels. You must know that 2nd WL tweet was political.
-
They should've just stayed away - why say anything if not their leak and didn't know any more than anyone else (and less than the players)?
-
Bc Assange is a narcissist and the press feeds it? But again, thus far they don't look "bad" (operationally) out of what they did.
-
I think agree to disagree. They inoculated themselves operationally by not being the channel, but still took a political stance.
-
I think I took your point & goal more narrowly. If goal is to discredit, has to be operational. Esp since failed attempt may hurt Macron
-
Goal was surely source not channel (if latter gets blowback, well fine). WL distanced op'rlly but couldn't resist lending a political oar
-
Doesn't theory only work if (as is likely but not proven) that source is same as DNC emails and WL knows that? And only for this source?

And I frankly don't dismiss possibility that it is getting inside visibility into efforts to discredit it, esp w/Clinton attempt.
