Why The World Needs WikiLeaks

August 18th, 2010 by Andy in Media and Democracy, Video

TED (Ideas Worth Spreading) presents this excellent interview with Julian Assange of the increasingly famous organization WikiLeaks (or infamous, depending on what side of the disinformation wall you are standing on, and whether one is trying to scale that wall or garrison it). In it Assange discusses why their work is necessary in helping to provide the information that is important to the world. He elaborates on how information which organizations spend large amounts of time and money on keeping hidden gets out, and the hope that its exposure can do some good.
