| 85. Julian Assange spoke about that in an interview recently. |

He gave an example of having information they could not confirm so did not publish. They ended up getting confirmation from someone who was trying to prevent them from publishing it but accidentally confirmed that that the information was legitimate. Then they published it.
He's very smart, but he's up against some powerful forces and his own government is being pressured now to go after him. He could go to Iceland where whistle-blowers are completely protected. Still doesn't mean he would be safe though.
