Back in the days when almost no one had heard about WikiLeaks, regular emails started arriving in my inbox from someone called Julian Assange. It was a memorable kind of name. All editors receive a daily mix of unsolicited tip-offs, letters, complaints and crank theories, but there was something about the periodic WikiLeaks emails which caught the attention. Sometimes there would be a decent story
Earlier this month, Al Jazeera launched a new feature on its Web site called the Transparency Unit—the network’s in-house version of WikiLeaks. When the unit first went online, there was not much coverage about it in English, but that changed over the weekend when Al Jazeera announced that it had gained access to a large tranche of confidential documents, now being called the “Palestine Papers.” T

I've seen many put-downs of the materials as containing "no smoking guns", or as being essentially trivial communications to the State Department from U.S. diplomats and kindred go
The WikiLeaks US embassy cables revelations caused a world-wide sensation. But the story behind their publication turns out to be just as sensational too. It transpires that the partnership between the WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and The Guardian was anything but straightforward. According to a Vanity Fair article by Sarah Ellison, there were rows, legal threats and a series of shocks before
Their different fates are telling. Clay Shirky grapples with the whole Wikileaks dynamic with his usual thoughtfulness here. I think he's onto something in his distinction between "international" and "global" media.
