WikiLeaks Tapes shows up corporate media, celebrates citizen journalists
By Cathy VoganThe Wikileaks Tapes
Directed by Cathy Vogan
Featuring John Pilger, Noam Chomsky, Christine Assange, Daniel Ellsberg, Mary Kostakidis, Senator Scott Lundlam, Julian Morrow & many moreTwo-disc DVD
That was the advert for Cathy Vogan’s new two-disc DVD The Wikileaks Tapes.
And it got me to wondering, “Like TWITTER, which has seen so many employees ‘hanging themselves in public with their gaddamn’d Free Speech, has WIKILEAKS just become a place where ‘those who want to share the truth’ (say, like Bradley Manning) can be publicly shames for their CRIMES AGAINST THE CORPORATE WAR MACHINE?”
Is this new-found ‘citizen journalism’ just allowing an individual ENOUGH ROPE TO HANG THEMSELVES?
Is Wikileaks safe to whistleblow to?
Is Twitter safe to tweet on?
Seriously (!)
