      Re-upping my op-ed from before the 2016 election: the biggest question for media re:Wikileaks/Assange is their own failure. They buried us in trivia & gossip the month before a crucial election and did not contextualize the obvious one-sided sabotage. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/05/opinion/what-were-missing-while-we-obsess-over-john-podestas-email.html …pic.twitter.com/lnfetNraJk

      I'd prefer to ignore that pathetic man full of himself but without the substance . What better to leaving him alone in that? Anyway, there will be others. The real question is how WE respond next time and distinguish real whistleblowing and press freedom from political sabotage.

          I should note that I do not forgive Wikileaks' role in publicizing the home addresses of millions of women in Turkey. People celebrating him as some sort of hero of press freedom are endangering press freedom by equating press freedom with reckless endangerment of innocents.

          I’m not a lawyer but this is also what concerned me reading the indictment.https://twitter.com/trevortimm/status/1116387389637718016 …

          Here's our statement at @FreedomofPress about serious press freedom dangers in the charge against Assange. The indictment threatens many common journalist-source practices: protecting source anonymity, using an encrypted messenger, requesting docs. https://freedom.press/news/trump-administrations-indictment-julian-assange-threatens-core-press-freedom-rights/ … pic.twitter.com/e38nlNlTV1

          Yep. Tried to pressure my editor, too. “Wikileaks” ended up blocking me on Twitter when I wouldn’t stop pointing out they were making harmful and false claims about the content they hosted and promoted. (Like verifiable as lies in a minute kinda lies)https://twitter.com/feralrobots/status/1116406882036584448 …

          I remember when they kept threatening @zeynep w/lawsuit when she persisted in pointing out their disinterest in the accuracy of their attributions or safely of vuln subjects.

          So US plan is to end Assange’s self-imposed no wifi exile & turn him into an attention magnet with a CFAA (which he clearly violated — no real journalist offers to crack passwords) indictment mentioning important journalistic practices, forcing principled actors to defend him.🙄

          We shouldn't ignore the rapes he committed, though.

          No rape charge should be ignored. I'm talking about all the things that would be true/relevant without that aspect.

          "political sabotage" is what the DNC, CNN, MSNBC etc. did to Bernie during the primaries. Informing the voters about this is the opposite

          Okay, I’ll bite. What did they “do to Bernie” that materially and negatively impacted him in any way?

          Nothing could be easier: if the information published is true, then it's whistleblowing journalism. Would you call out Fox or MSNBC as political sabotage bc of their clear bias? And unlike Wikileaks, they have published falsehoods on several occasions.https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1116348868235595777 …
