Um ya.... because the USA is known for having such a responsible media base.... nobody in this country is unfairly represented in the media and judged in the public eye before being brought to court. face it, most people in this nation are too fuggin stupid to realize that the garbage that they are spoon fed on msnbc, cnn, fox etc etc is biased and has an agenda. They will do anything to get ratings including passing judgement and shaping public opinion before the facts can even have a chance to be considered. I don't believe that anything that has ever been in the media light in this country has ever been portrayed fairly or had a chance to a fair trial after the fact. it seems the media has a vendetta of selling "shock news" because it gets ratings regardless of the truth or image it paints of the individual in question. In this country you have to face the media before you face the court, unfortunately the media is less trust worthy then the judiciary....
whether or not assange is guilty or not should only be left to the judicial system to decide, but you as well as all the sheep seem to have your mind made up already. I'll wait for the verdict, and then after the the release of the trial info to make my mind up....
