You could retreat into invective or you could point me to a better source than an article that came out before the show even aired. Assange has enough fuming and frustrated detractors that a verifiable source saying his show was funded by RT would have made it into the Wikipedia and IMDB pages a decade ago.

What a bunch of whataboutism horseshit.

I edited the first event press mention of WikiLeaks at Wired.

I covered the early Guantanamo leaks and the Iraqi Apache attack.

I've interviewed Assange, likely before you ever heard of him.

I broke the story that wikileaks' submission system broke and its SSL failed, the first external sign of the internal dissent where its tech lead literally made off with the server because he didn't trust Assange.

I pointed you to an extremely reputable source showing what everyone knew at the time, which is that a Putin controlled media outlet paid for and claimed credit for funding his "talk show."

His Russian connections after that were perfectly clear, including routing Snowden through Russia and later being the handmaiden of GRU in the DNC leaks.

Keep putting your head in the sand with dumbass arguments like it's not in IMDb.

It's a fine line between being a fanboy and being complicit and it's pretty clear which side of that line you're on now.

Lol. If you weren't just repeating bullshit, why isn't information about the Assange series being funded by RT reflected on these sites? You have given me a line in an article that came out before the series aired, got upset and now... you have decided to list your "credentials"...

Ahem... hrm...

Edit: Haha is that you editing the Wikipedia page?
