WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been awarded the 2011 Martha Gellhorn Prize for Journalism.

The prize is awarded annually to a journalist whose work has "penetrated the established version of events and told and unpalatable truth that exposes establishment propaganda, or 'official drivel', as Martha Gellhorn called it."

  • Wikileaks re-wrote the history of the last 10 years in a way no other document except the pentagon papers ever has in the US. We now have a history of 2000-2010 that is more detailed than any other history in the history of the world.

  • Finally, it is about time they get recognized. Next in line Al Jazeera [misspell].

  • @SamBramcisco Hardly a problem. I'm an intelligence soldier, and I regard Assange (and Manning) as true patriots.

    I am often called a terrorist for these things.

    But when you consider the US Constitution (that I am sworn to uphold) and the US Bill of Rights are both considered officially by the US Executive Branch and Department of Justice to be terrorist documents... I take the title of "terrorist" with the most highest honors and wear it as proudly as I do my bronze star and purple heart.

  • @SamBramcisco do not worry Sam that is what the Internet is for. If you ever want to listen to a good podcast with open minds hear the JOE ROGAN podcast.

  • Didn't hear about this via the BBC lol

  • Every time I say this man is a true journalist, I get called Anti-American/Terrorist/Ignora­nt. I live in KY, I have nothing but rednecks. Fuck my life, for not having someone to actually have a conversation with about World events ;(
