Julian Assange is the editor-in-chief of WikiLeaks, a whistleblower website. He grew up in a Queensland country town where people spoke their minds bluntly and distrusted big government as something that could be corrupted if not watched carefully. Before working at WikiLeaks, he was a physics and mathematics student as well as a computer programmer. He often speaks out about freedom of the press, censorship, and investigative reporting, and has won three journalism awards for his work at WikiLeaks.

Why We Published What We Have on the US Elections if the press obeys considerations above informing the public, we are no longer talking about a free press, and we are no longer talking about an informed public. Wikileaks remains committed to publishing information that informs the public, even if many, especially those in power, would prefer not to see it. WikiLeaks must publish. It must publish and be damned.

Assange: How "The Guardian" Milked Edward Snowden's Story It is quite odious that Snowden is being beaten over the head with Russia by The Guardian -- a publication he ought to have been able to trust. Snowden has to be in Russia. Russia is now the only place asylum for him can be meaningful. If he is anyone's captive, he is a peculiar kind of captive of the United States, which, having canceled his passport, will not allow him to safely leave Russia's borders, trapping him there.
