WikiLeaks

No, some of the other things say that he receives info from others...

What other things? Is it possible this is a case of seeing what you want to see due to preconceived notions? I ask because none of his comments in the interview read that way to me. And even in your recent quote, you changed some wording (inadvertently?) that takes the focus off the entities Wikileaks exposes.

“Our particular view on the mechanism of transparency is to selectively go after material that is concealed. Because organizations that have material and want to conceal it are giving off a signal that they believe there will be reform if that material is released.”

Actual quote: Assange - "The aim of Wikileaks is to achieve just reform around the world, and do it through the mechanism of transparency. Of course, many groups have that aim, but our particular view on the mechanism of transparency is to selectively go after material that is concealed, because organizations that have material and are concealing it are giving off a signal that they believe that they will be reformed if that material is released.

"They" being the organizations with the concealed materials, who, by the way I read it, sound as if they're more interested in maintaining the status quo.

It's THAT very kind of reality in reporting Wikileaks seems to want to offer. No spin.

The context of the articles seems more to say that the info he receives from others comes from sources that are either gagged from reporting the info, or who fear retaliation where "officially" established avenues don't offer as much protection as they say.

I just cut and paste the quote from some other wiki. Some of his quotes go on about his info comes from others, making him just a publisher, that he so often likes to proclaim himself to be. The quote I provided made him seem more an investigator/sleuth. Publishers don't seek out the info for their product, they just print it.

I am already at the point of not caring, like others have mentioned, nothing has changed with the release of any of his info. No one cares.

I would say realistically that change is coming. The bubble has to break soon. Hence my stockpiling of food/equipment/water purification gear/ammo/silver/solar and dyno powered equipment and so on. **** is gonna hit the fan soon, you all can find me in Missouri when it does! For those that have no hunting/mechanical/camping skills, good luck to you. ZOMBIE FOOD!!!

If he happens to be the straw that breaks the camels back, good for him, he will wish he was back in the outback instead of the UK at that point.

Matters of opinion.
