You need to follow FACTS, and just because you call yourself “journalist” doesn’t mean you get to make them up. Assange is charge with CONSPIRACY to HACK into a gov’t computer. He has been indicted by a grand jury, which means they felt it was more likely than not that he did it.

Correct. The precondition for a free press is that nobody can demand certain qualifications from a journalist, unlike eg a lawyer or a physician.

In the real world, governments get to do whatever they are able to get away with. That being said, this is a total travesty of justice.

Being a "journalist" doesn't give a pass to break any law on the books. If he had just published what manning gave him he'd be in the clear however they showed a GJ enough evidence of active participation to get an indictment. He's still free to use the journ defense at trial.

Here is the skinny: you cannot with any moral obligation support NYT vs US in pentagon papers and not support Assange vs US. I’m not taking sides, but I am taking on hypocrisy

JA just told the truth..I don't care how he got it..it isn't like the gov't. doesn't spy on us..all is fair in love and war. Besides Killary made certain any and all could view her secrets openly. She is who needs to be indicted.
