Assange? A journalist?
It says here, “computer programmer, founder and director of Wikileaks”.
I look up Wikileaks and it says, “international non-profit organization” that publicizes secret and classified documents.
I see the espionage part. And the subversion part. I don’t see the journalism part.
If I were an enemy agent I would claim to be a journalist as well. Grab all the 1st Amendment protection that I could reach.
How about we give him all the due process our system can provide, and let him prove his innocence?
Just remember though. There is a right way to do a thing, and a wrong way. Journalists know the difference. Assange does not.
