Wikileaks … threatened retribution against reporters…
Pretty much everything you need to know.
At this point, Assange is nothing but a convicted, on-the-lam rapist, and Wikileaks is nothing but a cheap shakedown operation for Putin.
Wikileaks denied that it purposefully excluded the record from the trove of emails it published, and the transparency group threatened retribution against reporters at the Daily Dot if they continued to report on the document.
Perfect.
Flash: Wikileaks is a Russian disinformation operation.
the transparency group threatened retribution
If I’ve only one life to live, let me live it as an asstooge…
…the transparency group threatened retribution against reporters at the Daily Dot if they continued to report on the document.
Hm, something sounds wrong about that sentence, but I just can’t put my finger on it…
He hasn’t been convicted. He shut himself up in the Ecuadorian embassy to avoid extradition and trial.
Have you tried their Taco Bowl with Russian dressing?
This is beyond depressing. I wonder what all those self-styled civil libertarians who lionized Assange and Wikileaks a couple of years ago think of Putin’s weasily little bootlicker now.
I’ll say it again, there needs to be an investigation of Edward Snowden’s role in all this. It seems just a bit too convenient that while he is enjoying Putin’s hospitality we suddenly see a Russian role in the hacking of political organizations and selective release of documents by Wikileaks. I smell a rat!
" It is disappointing to see Daily Dot pushing the Hillary Clinton campaign’s neo-McCarthyist conspiracy theories about critical media.” (WikiLeaks threatened to retaliate against the reporters if they pursued the story: “Go right ahead,” they said, “but you can be sure we will return the favour one day.”)"
Just like I was saying earlier about Putin - this sounds just like the Cosa Nostra, the Camorra, the N’dragheta and every other organized crime group on the planet - “Nice little country you have there, too bad if something happened to it.”
I really hate these mofos and have all along.
And I maintain that I am Eleanor of Acquitane. Doesn’t mean either assertion is true.
You know, there are an awful lot of people who have spent an awful lot of time puffing up Wikileaks as some sort of check and balance on government…when in reality from everything I’ve seen, it’s nothing more than an outlet for the petty grievances and revenges sought by a sad sorry excuse of a human being who believes his privilege extends far and away beyond anyone else’s. Not to mention having absolutely NO compunction whatsoever about harming innocent people in their pursuit of his goals (doxxing sexual assault victims, for instance).
I’m not here for the Assange God Complex or the brocialist fap circle. Thanks anyway.
And of course Assange has a knife, he always has a knife, we all have knives! It’s 1183 and we’re barbarians!
It sure seems that way. Amazing.
I was, sadly, thinking more…humans.
Could it possibly be that…GASP!!!..Wikileaks has an agenda???
(and by agenda, I mean NOT the one they’re telling the public)
Egotistical opportunistic vindictive lying jerk.
Hopefully the misguided TPM commenters who threw wood at every mention of Assange’s name have come to their senses.
And the odd thing is, Ecuador is behind it all.
“Wikileaks denied that it purposefully excluded”
BULLSHIT!
This rapist is as corrupt as they come! He has an agenda, I don’t believe a word of the crap they “leak” and refuse to read any of it!
