He has a TV show on RT (https://www.rt.com/tags/the-julian-assange-show/ https://www.rt.com/tags/the-julian-assange-show/), a Russian state-run news channel which is widely criticized as being a propaganda outlet (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RT_(TV_network)#Propaganda_and_related_issues https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RT_(TV_network)#Propaganda_and...). That seems like a massive conflict of interest to me. I also don't imagine it would take very long for him to lose his show if he published any seriously damaging Russian leaks.
