- tim333 10y agoAlso it can be explained by the simpler hypothesis of Assange not liking Clinton without bringing Russia into things. see http://www.mediaite.com/online/julian-assange-hillary-clinton-tried-to-destroy-us-and-failed/ http://www.mediaite.com/online/julian-assange-hillary-clinto... and similar
- inetknght 10y agoNo, but it does have to do with what authentic material they provide. There's a reason courts require "the whole truth"
- rebuilder 10y agoWhat would "the whole truth" mean in this context? An explanation of how we got here, starting with the Big Bang?
- spacemanmatt 10y agoMore than zero disclosures focusing on the Trump campaign, rather than the Clinton campaign. These were not just random samplings. They were cherry-picked from a huge collection and delivered with perfect timing. This is agency work, not Assange.
- travmatt 10y agoBut it has a lot to do with the information they omit, amirite? Isn't that why they accused the panama papers of being a CIA operation without any evidence, because they wanted to give cover for the Russian establishment they cut television deals with?
