The attempt to extradite Julian Assange to the United States for prosecution is a war against freedom of the press and our right to know. If the prosecution of Assange under the Espionage Act occurs, it will define journalism for the 21st Century. No journalist or publisher who exposes war crimes or corruption will be safe.

Tool and lapdog of Putin!
What else would you expect from Genghis Khan.
amerikans prefer corporate fascism–u r proof
Assange was not a ‘problem’ for the ruling psychopaths until he threatened to expose corporate malfeasance.
Press publications, all media worldwide must stand up for Assange and Manning, as well as popular support and protest in order to set them free!
