Did 60 MInutes edit Assange's interview in a deceptive way?

Someone else posted on the 60 minutes website pointing out that the interview was edited to make it look like Assange was responding to a question about hacking when he was really talking about programming.

At 2:50, Kroft asks Assange about his hacking past.

At 3:32, voice over by Kroft talking about Assange's hacking arrest in his 20s with past footage of a younger Assange, then cutting back to Assange talking, but we can't hear him because Kroft is still voicing over how Assange got off because the judge determined no harm had been done.

At 3:48, Kroft asks "Is that still one of your primary skills?" The inference is to hacking.

Assange's response: "Not really. Unfortunately I've been sort of promoted up into management so I don't get to do that so much but I know the terrain which means I know what is possible. For example, Bill Gates could program but he certainly doesn't program anymore but he knows what is possible for other people to do."

I have no conclusion either way. Without seeing the raw footage, who knows. Assange himself says it's an example and doesn't refer to himself as as a programmer but Kroft doesn't specifically ask about the skill of hacking, he just asks about a skill.

My overall impression of the interview was that it was antagonistic. Kroft followed the narrative that Assange is paranoid, secretive and wants to bring down America and the powerful, and it's somehow hypocritical of Wikileaks because it is also powerful. Kroft is also sure to add all the other criticism of Wikileaks we've heard from it's detractors. Is that a good thing because it gives Assange a platform to answer that criticism himself? Or has 60 Minutes — and the US media in general — become so useless that it won't even feign to defend publishing and the first amendment?
