Plantagenet has missed the point of the article, deliberately or otherwise.

CNN being the mouthpiece of the Democratic Party, scorned the loss of the election to the GOP, a situation which was ably assisted by Wikileaks during the 2016 Presidentials.

Wikileaks is a legitimate media outlet which will possibly escape prosecution in the US as a consequence.

The article points out the vindictive nature of CNN attacks on Assange, since it commonly assists in Government leaks itself.

Poor Hillary...

The article's content is too far below reasonable standards to earn direct comment.

I'm impressed with this author. He has a great style.

It gets a tick.

Obviously you like Kampmark's political leanings.

Are you, in fact, Kampmark?

Facts:
Assange is an Australian.
Assange is being used as a pawn.
Assange is being unjustly defamed even by fellow Australians on this site.
Assange is a human being and at present is gagged, unable to reply to defamation and abuse.
Assange has not committed any crime under Australian Law.

The USA should keep its own security secure.

What has happened to British Justice? Assange get 12 months goal for skipping bail while 'democracy' avoids conviction for invading Iraq, on trumped up 'intelligence' of WMD's that did not exist, resulting in death of more than half a million civilians including women and children.

At least Diver Dan on OLO can see the injustice in our 'democracy'.

Let Julian Assange go free.

Kampmark's complaints that Assange is a freedom fighting victim conveniently forgets

the threats of Assange's Wikileaks' authoritarian organisation to muzzle the press.

WIKILEAKS THREATENS COURT ACTION - ATTEMPTING TO CENSOR JOURNALISTS' FREEDOM OF SPEECH

Checkout the Link http://www.pressgazette.co.uk/wikileaks-emails-journalists-with-97-false-and-defamatory-claims-to-avoid-in-reporting-on-founder-julian-assange/ of January 7, 2019.

In a move to prevent journalists from doing to Wikileaks what Wikileaks does every day to Democratic governments,

Wikileaks emailed journalists with a list of 97 “false and defamatory” statements (see Link above) about its

founder/publisher Julian Assange after claiming efforts to defame him had “reached a new nadir”.

The authoritarian Wikileaks organisation said the number of “false and defamatory” claims made

against Assange had “accelerated” since his internet access at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London,

where he has lived for more than six years, was cut off last year.

Wikileaks claimed the rise was “perhaps because of an incorrect view that Mr Assange, due to his...personal

circumstances, can no longer defend his reputation”, it said in the email sent out to journalists.

Before listing 97 “false and defamatory” claims about Assange and Wikileaks itself, the Wikileaks

email concluded: “The purpose of this list is to aid the honest and accurate and to put the dishonest

and inaccurate on notice.”

It is believed that the list originally contained 140 claims, but the version published by Wikileaks

today had some sections taken out."

WIKILEAK'S itself placed a SECURITY CAVEAT on its Email List as “NOT FOR PUBLICATION”

But Wikileaks was forced to make the Email List (reproduced here http://pastelink.net/m69m )

public after the List was leaked by JOURNALISTS who DEFIED WIKILEAK's LEGAL THREATS.
