American Journalists Shun Wikileaks Founder

From McClatchy Newspapers: Not so long ago, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange could count on American journalists to support his campaign to publish secret documents that banks and governments didn't want the world to see.

But just three years after a major court confrontation that saw many of America's most important journalism organizations file briefs on WikiLeaks' behalf, much of the U.S. journalistic community has shunned Assange — even as reporters write scores, if not hundreds, of stories based on WikiLeaks' trove of leaked State Department cables.

I like your post except for the last 3 words.

If you think European Journalism is more free you are incredibly naive - I draw your attention to Hungary, Serbia and Italy in particular.
