Huffpo. And Assange is as shocking to the old information order as Wilde was to the sexual order. It’s amazing to me how many old-school journalists are trashing this guy, who has delivered more information about how the world operates than anyone, ever. The New Republic is filled with bitter condemnation, Todd Gitlin of the Columbia Journalism School is against Assange. This is one of those historical Which side are you on, moments. Glenn Greenwald has been carrying on the good fight at Salon– “pure authoritarianism–” and Naomi Wolf has bravely called Assange’s captors the dating police. It’s true that the territory that Assange has discovered is a scary one, but it is bound to make civilization better. Think of it; the U.S. has lost its way, we are involved in two brutal occupations halfway around the world that are alienating all Muslims, three occupations if you count Israel’s of Palestine, and journalists here are against learning more about it.
