Is this the end of investigative journalism? - John Rees - World News - #23 Edition

Julian Assange is the founder of WikiLeaks which revealed critical public interest material about the conduct of the Afghan and Iraq wars. He is now in Belmarsh prison for a fifth year awaiting the outcome of extradition proceedings which are just about to conclude. If Assange is taken to the US he will be the first journalist ever tried under the 1917 Extradition Act.
Join John Rees, writer, broadcaster, and campaigner who is the national coordinator of the Free Assange campaign in the UK, as he explores the potential outcomes, which could result journalists being cast as spies, a major blow to press freedom, and could be sentenced to a 175 year jail term.
