If they supposedly have the video, why don't they just release it?
- breck 17y agoIt's a fundraising campaign. They're not releasing it because they're trying to raise money and are building the hype. Read the article. Pretty disingenuous if you ask me.
- ErrantX 17y agoFrom the article: Some of the new interest is related to a film exposing a U.S. massacre we will release at the U.S. National Press Club on April 5 Personally I'm willing, for the moment, to take on faith everything posted so far (and that they have a video of some kind) - we'll see what happens April 5th.
- nihilocrat 17y agoI'm okay with waiting, but I'm just wondering why a site that's about leaking things is holding a carrot in front of us. I have a strange feeling that the video is not as juicy as we're lead to believe, and it's just a publicity stunt, which is why I'm posing the question to HN.
