An extraordinary example of idiot journalism... Archived Message Posted by David Macilwain on June 9, 2019, 8:43 am, in reply to "SMH: "You don't stand a chance": how the press freedom argument will go for Assange" because in Australia so far there has been NO MENTION of Assange in the context of the police raids on the ABC and journalists! Just as Nick Miller never mentions these raids, which have been made possible by the Assange pretext - to a degree, given that the draconian legislation to restrict journalistic freedoms was enacted in coordination with 5 eyes partners as a key part of their cyber war on truth. Other than Caitlin Johnstone and the Australians who read her, the general public also remains ignorant of any connection with Assange, as they have been told he is guilty of rape and espionage and a narcissist. I suspect even that there is some sort of ban on mentioning Assange in the msm here, and the only mention I heard in connection with the AFP-government raids on ABC radio was when I phoned up and mentioned it myself! Nick Miller represents the typical US-blinkered journalist here, who would manage to find some "expert" to comment on this story who thinks that Assange would get a "fair trial" in the US. It's preposterous, because the idea that he would even be rendered to the US is a monstrous miscarriage of justice. God we are living in dark times here!
