WikiLeaks Publishes 5 Million 'Shadow CIA' E-Mails

Wikileaks does what journalism should do in a democracy.

Break the law? Endanger American lives? Journalists to enough of that, as it is.

Let's see a show of hands: who praises Wikileaks, yet called for heads to roll because of the Plame Affair?

These files are important because they reveal the growing multi-billion dollar intelligence industry that allows non-government organizations like multinationals to gain information about private citizens, activist organizations, and to precision-manipulate the political arena. It also reveals the ways in which the corporate media are actively trying to manipulate the public or omit crucial information.

Our democracy is under direct attack and Wikileaks has done us a great service by publishing this information.

I surely think that Julian Assange deserves a Pulitzer Prize. Not just for this, but also the Iraq info. Assange is a target of the "Mighty Wurlitzer" that begins to look like crap when Wiki prints the actual truth. "Thou shalt not speak the truth" when big money's agenda needs to generate its' own truth, or something like that. The worst part is the large number of citizens that buy the "Mighty Wurlitzer" attempts to demonize Assange, Chavez, Castro, Iran, Syria, and anyone else who won't join their "Distribution Network." PR manipulation really works. Some call it brainwashing. Be sure to use some suds.
