Freedom of the Press @FreedomofPress

A successful conviction of Assange would make receiving classified information, asking sources follow ups, & publishing at least some types of classified info a crime. Reporters from major news outlets, of course, engage in all these activities regularly. https://t.co/tEZY1IxEtE — PolitiTweet.org

You don’t have to like Assange to grasp the dangerous nature of this case for press freedom. Even if you don’t think he's a “journalist,” many of the activities described in his charges are common newsgathering practices. Criminalizing them that would put ALL journalists at risk. — PolitiTweet.org
