WIKILEAKS FOUNDER SAVAGES SARAH PALIN AND OTHERS IN US TV INTERVIEW
December 24th 2010 02:57
In an exclusive interview on America’s MSNBC, Julian Assange described criticism in Washington, DC, and elsewhere of WikiLeaks as nothing short of attacks on journalism and the First Amendment.
Pressed on comments made recently by Mike Huckabee and others who consider Assange a terrorist, the WikiLeaks founder dismissed Huckabee as "another idiot trying to make a name for himself."
Assange called people like Sarah Palin and Huckabee "shock-jock politicians."
Meanwhile, Spain killed a controversial bill on Tuesday night that would have made it easier to shut down websites that link to infringing content.
Ars Technica commented, “The move was a blow to the ruling Socialist government, but it may be of even bigger concern to the US, which pushed, threatened, and cajoled Spain to clamp down on downloading. And WikiLeaks can take a share of the credit for the defeat.”
