Nice job US government. Next steps:
1. Get Google to stop indexing them
2. Get news organizations to stop writing stories
3. Hypnotize everyone who heard about it into forgetting.It will be just like the whole thing never happened.

They have to take it down before they release those bank documents...they can't let it be known how much of these dire economic times are purposeful & man made for the benefit of a certain small number of people.

do you think they will make a movie out of this?
starring Leonardo DiCaprio? Or perhaps Tom Cruise?

Nice I see Murdoch and his Wall Street Journal are publishing "Wikileaks Fiction" about a brave US interagtor out to save "Farash" her informant form death at the hands of his evil muslim neighbors by strapping on her .45 and going out and filling them full of lead. Evil Wikileaks!

Nothing like a leading global newspaper turning to fiction to sell it's narrative, huh?
So as to the above post - yeah, when a movie gets made it wlil be about protecting the "innocent" people put in "harms way" by this evil Julian and his Wikileaks.
Prob. played by an aging Bruce Willis in the American interagtor with a heart of gold going out into the dangerous Baghdad night to protect the poor boy who ratted out his friends to the Americans before they set off a car bomb and all was revealed by that evil mastermind Julian Assange and his Wikileaks, who will get shot by WIllis at the end on a Paris rooftop who will say something sounding vaguely European and evil.

Washington Times weighs in: Assassinate Him.

I have never been more proud to be an American, nor of our incredibly enlightened Fourth Estate of Government, who at every opportunity afflicts the comfortable and comforts the afflicted.
Or not.
- writing with "justified type" should be SHOOT IN THE HEAD. that's just unpleasant for EVERY AMERICAN.akrokdesign

So I guess this is the proof eh? There is no "liberal bias" in the media that Americans get spoonfed. Nor is there a "rightwing bias" either. It's just propaganda for the entrenched elites, whatever serves them. I know, no newsflash right? But its nice to have confirmation.
I like the way a guy on the libertarian right such as Ron Paul, of whom I'm not a huge fan, but I respect his principled stands, supports Wikileaks but this doesn't get presented in the media nor does those on the Left who support him.
It's all lost in a bloviating media class repeating as naseum who call Assange "strange" or "weird" or "evil" and get the vapors over how many American lives might be lost or some sort or other bullshit thing. I had to turn off Charlie Rose the other night when it had Time Magazine's editor on there doingall he could to character assassinate Assange and Wikileaks. All very polite, but there were daggers behind the words.

BlueOne - it's from the looser news organizations that didn't get the scoop. It would be great if he fought with their own weapon - if you talk smack, you get 2-rate scoop after everyone else gets to see the documents beforehand.
- But it's the entire editorial slant, not just sour grapes on the reporting scoopTheBlueOne

Too bad its the people who really need wikileaks that are going to suffer because of the mainstream fear mongering towards this service. People that have nothing to do with the banks or the US cable leaks, the ones fighting torture and totalitarianism. They are no longer even pretending to support freedom and human rights.

In yet another of these mainstream media smear stories I noticed this aside:
"Earlier this year, a long investigative series in the Washington Post revealed that more than 854,000 people working for the US government now hold classified-material clearance – more than 1.5 times the entire population of Washington, DC. “The top-secret world the government has created in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, has become so large, so unwieldy and so secretive,” the Post concluded, “that no one knows how much money it costs, how many people it employs, how many programmes exist within it or exactly how many agencies do the work.”
- there's plenty of media doing smears. But plenty are doing good work: The Guardian and NYtimes, Spiegel, Le Monde...ThePublics
