Rap News 6 – Wikileaks’ Cablegate the truth is out there (Mirrored)
Wikileaks – USA
November 2010 Julian Assange has been labelled one of the most dangerous men on earth. With the most comprehensive archive of background reports in the world, we get right inside the guarded world of the whistle-blower. “We want to create a system where there is guaranteed free press across the world…”, enthuses Assange. Yet critics call the actions of the whistle-blower ‘activism’ not journalism, arguing that his releases are ‘agenda-driven’ and ‘reckless’. Shaking off claims that he is endangering lives, Assange and his nomadic team may be staying on the move, but they don’t intend to stay in hiding. Fly-on-the-wall reporting reveals a quietly determined man on a mission.Whether he is to be condemned or congratulated, Assange is adamant that “the true nature of this world is being revealed”, and with more releases yet to come his message is clear: “stay tuned”.
