Calling his latest document dump “the most extraordinary history of a war to have ever been released in our civilization,” Assange dismissed the questions on his personal life as “tabloid journalism.” “It should be obvious that these things are not in balance and not proportionate,” he added during a separate, live interview with CNN veteran journalist Larry King. “It is not right to bring in sensational and, in fact, false claims relatively trivial matter, compared to the deaths of 109000 people… CNN should be ashamed of doing that. And you, Larry, you actually should be ashamed, as well.”
Why are the media so stupid that they can’t analyse the timing of the sexual accusation?
Also, Consensual sex is not rape, are you the accusers so stupid?
Why does the media brush aside thousands of deaths for this alleged sexual incident. Why not check the bank accounts of these 2 swedish women?
There are a lot of inconsistancies about this sexual incidents, Don’t try to muck the main story and GET TO THE POINT.
julian assange is doing a mighty fine job throwing back everything these americunt journalists have with twofold
I am glad this old fucker Larry King is finally retiring. He gives a terrible interview, constantly interrupts, asks moronic questions.
how do you to the website wikileaks?
It’s not that the allegations of rape are lies, you people have to realize that, in Sweden, having sex without a condom is CONSIDERED a lesser form of rape.
@PhreakPhantom
What the fuck? Then every father in Sweden or guys who just have unprotected sex are rapists? Or shall I say lesser rapists?
@FuckingEnforcer I don’t think marriege aply to that, but that’s sweden for ya.
If his information is genuine, then it’s genuine. Questions about the presenter are irrelevant. Only a stupid person would make the connection (and the media thinks we’re stupid.)
@Revelation47 The news don’t care is why. We don’t have those “lets research for a day and give a good hour of news” anymore. Its 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The only way they get ratings anymore is this kind of tabloid stuff. So what if he was charged with having sex without a condom. Or the fact that they got a damn interpol warrant or even the timing. This guy RAPED a girl so he must answer for that:P
Don´t kill the mASSANGEr !
Larry should interview the 2 swedish women on their sex lifes and find out how many others had sex with them WITHOUT condom. That is a challenge I put forward to Larry, if he has the balls to do it.
Another challenge for Larry, why not find out the truth about the thousands of Wikileaks’ reports. Larry has failed miserably to follow-up on any one topic and instead making a fool of himself here. TIme to retire Larry the lip flapper.
Assange is a hero.
Here in America diversion using trivial issues is an artform.
This interview was useless. Did CNN get anything positive out of it? Using diversion tactics to avoid discussing ehat really matters. CBS and BBC still my favs
In the UK the public get brainwashed with filtered stories and denied truths by the propaganda machine the BBC and the corrupt scum in government.
People here are begining to wake up to the other terrorists beside the religious idiots, the British, US & Israel. It’s not the ordinary public in these countries, it’s the corrupt lying scum in the governments with their controlled media.
The world needs a viable opposition to these threats but who? China? India? Russia? They’re just the same scum.
“KING OF DICK!”
Larry King is an absolute cunt:D
Larry King your brain is a collection of gray goop. Assange never stated Rape is trivial. He stated false information is trivial but again this is CNN – widley known for distorting the truth and spreading lies. CNN promotes the American-Army-Of-Terror. CNN promotes murder. How many women were raped by American soldiers? Ask the Army-of-molesters about rape.
Larry King is a rapist – he’s projecting his own desires onto someone else.
He needs to go back to interviewing dumbed down celebrities.
I like Larry King and this is not to discredit him, but is he drunk in this interview.

I admire Daniel and thank he and Julian for their interest in free press. Larry you should know better and I was disappointed in you in this video.
Wikileaks is just showing to the world that US Goverment is the “Big Brother” of the planet. All nations are being tested, observed and manipulated for the benefit of US. US has spys and informers everywhere. Not one nation on earth is spared. And everybody should go in favour of US interests, because if not, they are in trouble. US has two faces, the nice one and the horrible one. Wikileaks is showing the dark side of US. But the most horrible side is still to come. Will it be known?
larry king sucks …he is old and his time is over >>>
senile old bastard can’t tell the difference between the footage he’s talking about and current interview
OPEN AND FREE GOVERNMENT! Who in their right minds would want a government who censors and keeps horrible secrets from their people? No one. Thank God for Assange and his free press movement.
