    Rushbridger on Going Underground Archived Message

    Having called Assange a conduit for GRU-hacked emails, Mr Forked Tongue says source-motives doesn’t matter (only accuracy & public interest) and he himself doesn’t know if 2016 emails were hacked or leaked.

    He still maintains Assange himself published unredacted emails, - not somebody else who (somehow) got that password.

    Assange is not being “tortured” but his condition merits "concern”

    He is cryptic and allusive about his "question marks" about Pilger Fisk and Hersh but it’s a safe bet he has the Douma chlorine “bombs” in mind. The official Douma story, like Russiagate, is something about which The Guardian has so far admitted no real dissent.

    He laments being under informed about the Assange court case because it was under-reported. Has the Guardian no court reporters?


    In Rushbridgers defence it must be said that things did not get better after he left the Guardian. Under Viner they got unexpectedly worse.
