This case remains alarming despite his release. The battle for press freedom must be vigorously pursued.
Julian Assange ... is a free man who is back down under, though convicted under U.S. law.
Assange's guilty plea agreement does not put an end to the controversy, as he has been convicted under the Federal Espionage Act.
The WikiLeaks founder ... has managed to avoid extradition to the U.S. and a possible lifelong jail sentence.
Regardless of one’s opinion of Assange’s controversial methods, he is, and remains, a publicist, not a spy.
WikiLeaks' exposé of British and American atrocities in Afghanistan and Iraq isn't espionage in any meaning of the word.
At Assange’s trial, we can expect the U.S. to argue that hacking and computer intrusion are not journalism.
The attempt to extradite the WikiLeaks founder is an assault on the press freedom that the Biden administration promises to promote.
