OpEdNews.com is posting for Julian Assange for the foreseeable future.

Julian Assange is the editor-in-chief of WikiLeaks, a whistleblower website. He grew up in a Queensland country town where people spoke their minds bluntly and distrusted big government as something that could be corrupted if not watched carefully. Before working at WikiLeaks, he was a physics and mathematics student as well as a computer programmer. He often speaks out about freedom of the press, censorship, and investigative reporting, and has won three journalism awards for his work at WikiLeaks.
