People have been wanting to see the studio. Apparently the wide angle lens made my head look bigger than it is.
Tomorrow’s show There is a lot of odd news appearing, much of it about Julian Assange and what is to happen next. Trump did not help his cause as a bullshit artist by suddenly claiming no knowledge of Wikileaks when the media has plenty of clips from his rallies where he says, “I love Wikileaks.” His recent response to a direct question and his saying, “Wikileaks is not my thing” as if it was a drug or car brand further confused matters.
At least he was not exhibiting the blood lust of most of the members of both parties regarding Assange with the rare but not unexpected response of Rand Paul who defended Assange.
The most noteworthy reaction, though, comes from the media, which should be defending Assange as a journo who provides the media with a lot of fascinating source material they should technically relish. One observer was baffled by the media and its nonchalance regarding the treasure trove of info. Why are they acting this way?
Wiki wha...? Wiki who? Never heard of it.
From a No Agenda perspective you’ve learned that even if secret information is made public, intelligence officers are still prohibited from viewing it. This is stupid, yes, but was revealed to the show by those in the business.
If we are to assume that a goodly number of reporters are low-level intelligence assets, you must assume that they have no interest in Wikileaks because they cannot even go to the website lest they be fired or worse. Few are trained to get past a lie detector test.
It’s the only thing that makes any sense regarding the general attitude of too many supposed journalists.
Hopefully some folks are mirroring the site before it gets shuttered completely. And readers should note that this indictment of Assange was initiated by Jeff Sessions.
There is plenty of International news that only No Agenda covers on Tomorrow’s show too. Keep supporting these efforts by clicking here. Remember that you are the only means of support as the show remains adverser and influencer-free.
