"You can publish true information even when it offends and indicts the most powerful person in the room... He's being punished because he did the right thing" - Stella Assange
Stella Assange speaking to the Luxembourg Parliament on the persecution of Julian Assange
Is everyone forgetting how Assange had a TV show on RT, the Russian state propaganda network?
And how every single leak about Russia was either heavily redacted, or just not released, when leaks about the US or US allies were not? Even when some of those US ally leaks put people in danger?
Wikileaks showed clear favoritism to Russia, because Russia was footing the bills.
RT has regularly been described as a major propaganda outlet for the Russian government and its foreign policy.[2] Academics, fact-checkers, and news reporters (including some current and former RT reporters) have identified RT as a purveyor of disinformation[58] and conspiracy theories.[65] UK media regulator Ofcom has repeatedly found RT to have breached its rules on impartiality, including multiple instances in which RT broadcast “materially misleading” content.[72]
In 2012, RT’s editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan compared the channel to the Russian Ministry of Defence.[73] Referring to the Russo-Georgian War, she stated that it was “waging an information war, and with the entire Western world”.[17][74]
As to the show being “independent”… It was made by Assange, specifically to air on RT. Assange was paid for the show, because that’s how licensing content works.

Sounds like something the CIA might’ve made up

Yes, his independent show was licensed to air on RT, what’s your point. It was also hosted by Youtube, a US military contractor.
RT is literally state controlled media.

Right back at ya!
YouTube being a military contractor is certainly a take
Sorry, YT’s owner, Google now Meta
Meta is Facebook. You mean Alphabet.
That one. Thanks
