Well therein lies the rub. Assange isn't a journalist or an American citizen. Neither applies. Seriously though, I don't think those rights are exclusive to either journalists or Americans. I personally believe those rights are inalienable rights that everyone deserves, among others. In fact, all others. We are all created equal and should be able to live as such, but any right comes with responsibility. I don't feel Assange is being responsible or transparent. He's past the point of being given the benefit of the collective doubt. I don't know what's going on, but honestly, no one involved in any of this seems innocent at this point.
