Julian Assange held off releasing information about the US elections or Hillary Clinton in a
highly anticipated press conference early this morning. Thousands of viewers of the live-streamed
event were left feeling they had been rick rolled. Assange said, “There’s enormous expectation
in the United States. Some of that
expectation will be partly answered, but you understand that if we’re going to
make a major publication in the United States at a particular hour we won’t do
it at 300 AM.”
Asked during the
press conference directly about Hillary, he denied that he or Wikileaks “intend
to harm” the Democratic nominee specifically, but insisted his revelations
would be “significant” in relation to the election. He said, “There has
been a lot of misquoting of me and Wikileaks publications and in this
particular case the misquoting has to do with whether we intend to harm Hillary
Clinton. All those are false."
“Our upcoming
publications are significant in relation to the US elections. Do they show
interesting features of US power factions and how they operate? Yes, they do.”
WikiLeaks says today. Then not today. Then today. Then not today. https://t.co/bFKoHrJmfk— Byron York (@ByronYork) October 4, 2016
