Episode 7 - Intelligence Agency of the People
Manage episode 321999404 series 3315705
Wikileaks was at least 20 years in the making. Described as a “radical form of muck-raking”, it was a unique convergence of technology, a new brand of politics and university maths puzzles. It’s founder Julian Assange was ideologically driven and had a sharp sense of humour. Wikileaks, or as Assange called it, “an intelligence agency of the people” continues to influence journalism, politics and democracy around the world.
