I did tell y'all some time ago that I don't trust Assange.
Nigel Farage has repeatedly refused to say why he met Wikileaks founder Julian Assange before terminating a heated interview. The former Ukip leader told Germany’s Die Zeit newspaper he visited the Ecuadorian Embassy for “journalistic reasons, not political reasons” in March. “I will not say any more about that,” Mr Farage added. “It has nothing to do with you. It was a private meeting.”
He declined to say whether any kind of article would be published but described the meeting as “very brief” and said he talked “about a lot of things” with Mr Assange. Leaked emails later revealed long-standing contacts between Ukip and the Australian activist, who the party has publicly supported through a sexual assault investigation in Sweden.

Political figures don't get to claim "none of your business" about talking to political figures. Same goes for all the trump aides talking to Russians, and Farrage (or, Mr most punchable face five years running) when he goes and gets paid to talk on Russian Mafia-TV.

ReplyDeletethat's how you do journalism, all right.
At least, if your claim to having "journalistic reasons" is that you talk on RT and Fox.
