This morning Julian Assange was dragged out of the Ecuadorian Embassy in London and arrested in relation to a US extradition request for "conspiracy with Chelsea Manning".
The allegation is that Assange tried and failed to help crack a password, and this is an allegation for which the Obama administration tried to find evidence for many years, without success.
Snowden remarked "The weakness of the US charge against Assange is shocking", and previously Obama's DOJ refused to charge the same count, saying it endangered journalism.
The DOJ has justified the prosecution of Assange by saying that his request for "more information" from Manning was criminal. That is what journalism is: asking for information from your sources. This is literally the criminalization of journalism.
The only news outlet that captured Assange being dragged out of the embassy this morning was Ruptly, a subsidiary of RT.
