Posted on | December 13, 2010 | 4 Comments

“There’s a huge difference between an individual or an organization reporting abuses in government or business one at a time and the same people stealing enough classified material to run a spy agency. But sleazy Julian Assange and his spy agency WikiLeaks are trying to pretend they are journalists. He even calls himself ‘editor-in-chief,’ sort of like Mata Hari calling herself H.L. Mencken or the Rosenbergs claiming to be Woodward and Bernstein.”
— Dan Gainor, “Media Can’t Decide Whether Espionage is Journalism”
