CBS’s Scott Pelley Implies The World Has Turned Against Wikileaks

Just minutes ago I was watching the CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley.  Pelley was reporting on Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, and his impending extradition to Sweden, “to face rape and sexual molestation claims.”

Toward the end of his report, Pelley said Wikileaks funding has “dried up,” implying that the world as a whole has turned against the organization.  What Pelley didn’t tell his audience is that there has been an organized campaign by the 1%-ers to starve Wikileaks of funding because the documents Wikileaks has leaked (and has the potential to leak) threatens their control of the planet:

Gotta love the “liberal media,” huh?
