"Nowadays, journalism all over the world is becoming part of the entertainment industry. It's becoming a circus. And in doing so it is forfeiting the constitutional role it had in a free society. This role was to educate, not to entertain." - Amos Elon WikiLeaks is necessary because, generally speaking, journalists no longer monitor the centers of power. If what WikiLeaks does is activism, then mainstream journalism is propaganda. You are playing with semantics. The truth is the truth, and revealing the truth is almost always noble, regardless of the mechanism being used to reveal such truth. If the powers that be use the media to deceive the masses and that is called journalism, then journalism is itself biased, which invalidates pseudo-moral arguments against WikiLeaks' bias.
