CNN PRESENTS: WIKIWARS THE MISSION OF JULIAN ASSANGE– Airs Sunday 8:00PM – 9:00PM
CNN investigative correspondent Kaj Larsen reports on the whistle-blowing website that remains beyond the reach of governments and international authorities. Founded by 39 year-old, former computer hacker Australian Julian Assange, the virtual volunteer army of supporters that form the loosely organized WikiLeaks has unleashed an avalanche of secret documents, videos, and classified military reports on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and other matters. Assange, a self-appointed champion of free speech, says he is on a mission to expose secrecy, corruption and injustice. Critics say his revelations of detainee torture and previously unknown civilian deaths – including the identities of informants working with the US military – have put U.S. military lives in danger and compromised American interests.
