Aaron Swartz: Exploitation of Wikileaks by Wall Street Journal & New York Times.

A 2011 interview, with Aaron Swartz, hacker and activist. He discusses how the Wall Street Journal is planning their own “leaks” site. Apparently even though the New York Times harshly criticizes Julian Assange and Wikileaks, over half of their newspapers contain source material they obtained from Wikileaks. Swartz was later targeted by the US government, and committed suicide, on January 10, 2013.
