Well Assange had his big Hillary killer press event. Spoilers

Parade of women to defend him
They are now selling Wikileaks Gold Memberships
He promises tons more leaks before the end of the year, he really does. Pinkie swear
Also buy his new book
 
Following the #octobersurprise hashtag during this was hilarious. They don't have shit, it's all marketing. They might as well have launched their GoFundMe.

Hey, funds at the Kremlin are tight. It is either wikileaks or russiatoday, and you always support old blood first
 
Anyone know the context as to why this is happening?

I'm kinda confused at Assange and Wikileaks in general. I thought they were the "good guys", but all I see/hear from either of them the last few months [?] is nothing but trash.

What happened? Or am I just misremembering this? Did he go insane, locked away in that embassy or something?
 
So this is it right. We'll see if he has something.
I read the only thing that was said was "we will release something by the end of the year"

My bet is they don't have shit, and hope everyone forgets after the election.

Snowden and Manning were heroes, maybe, WikiLeaks was just the outlet they used. Otherwise it only exists to be fucking annoying and irresponsible
 
It's over. Killary is done.

Wikileaks has been co-opted by the Russians, and Assange has spent much of the past decade hiding in an Ecuadorian embassy cupboard to avoid a trial for rape.

They may have been a force for openness and transparency at one point, but that point is loooonnnngggg behind us by now.

Confinement has driven Assange nuts. Wikileaks even at its best worked best with the help of real journalist.
 
Hey guys, we totally heard from a guy who heard from a guy that Hillary might have asked during a meeting one day if it was possible to drone Assange. Possibly jokingly, but hey, according to the guy who heard it from a guy she might mean it! And please buy my book. Kay, thanks, bye!

What a joke.

Also, what was up with the Fox News-reel to 'prove' the US is out to kill them. Yeah, there was crazytalk by crazy people on a crazy news channel. Go figure.

How low WikiLeaks has fallen. At least they started out as something good.

Anyone else get the feeling that someone got to Assange? Looks scared, stuttering. Never seen him like this. #OctoberSurprise #wikileaks10

Ah, yes. The Bernie tactic.

Hillary is pretty effective for a dying old robot.

They are against establishment regardless of facts, it turns out. The Democrats been in power for close to 8 years now so they are the big enemy for them now. In the meantime they ignore Trump or whatever happens on the GOP side, because they are not the establishment to them now.

Bear in mind Wikileaks has been riding on other's coat tails for a while now. The poster child for whistleblowing through leaks is Snowden exposing the NSA, and that's not Wikileaks. This was done in conjunction with journalists and went through editing, redaction of sensitive and irrelevant information, etc.
Assange and his pals could give two shits about these standards.
