Radical transparency site WikiLeaks has gone after author Michael Wolff following the publication of a controversial book that puts the Trump White House in an unflattering light.

​The Twitter account for the organisation published the link to the book by the New York-based media critic which has created a firestorm for US President Donald Trump over the past week.

"New Trump book 'Fire and Fury' by Michael Wolff. Full PDF:" were the only words in the tweet, followed by what appears to be a link to a Google Drive file.

The PDF file contains no page numbers, and it is not clear if it is the final version of the book.
