Julian Assange Awarded UK's Martha Gelhorn Prize for Journalism
While American talking heads have decided Julian Assange should be assassinated, journalists in the UK think telling the truth is a worthy pursuit.
The New Statesman reports:
The internet activist and founder of whistleblower website, WikiLeaks, has been awarded the highly prestigious Martha Gelhorn Prize for Journalism 2011.
The prize is presented annually to a journalist “whose work has penetrated the established version of events and told an unpalatable truth that exposes establishment propaganda, or ‘official drivel’, as Martha Gelhorn called it.”
