10/2/20 Andy Worthington on His Assange Extradition Hearing Testimony - a podcast by Scott Horton

from 2020-10-06T04:16:03

:: ::

Scott interviews Andy Worthington about his testimony in Julian Assange’s extradition hearing. Worthington reminds us how important the revelations in Chelsea Manning’s Guantanamo Files leak were, stressing just how much harm has been done to the dozens of men held, and often tortured, there—including the 40 who are still detained today. Assange, says Worthington, is not a hacker or a hostile intelligence actor; he is simply a heroic journalist working to expose government crimes to the people.



Discussed on the show:



“Rasul v. Bush” (Oyez)

“The Guantanamo Files” (WikiLeaks)



Andy Worthington is the author of Guantanamo Files and the director of “Outside the Law: Stories from Guantanamo.” Read his work at the Future of Freedom Foundation and AndyWorthington.co.uk and follow him on Twitter @GuantanamoAndy.
