Wikileaks founder Julian Assange’s controversial new talk show is set to drop today at 13h30 South African time on a Russian digital news channel. Nothing this man does is not bent on overthrowing the way we look at our society and the world around us, so the first episode of The World Tomorrow should be a hefty serving of global illuminati conspiracy cray-cray realness. Check out Episode One, after the jump!
Julian Assange To Run For Australian Senate
19 Mar 2012 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Julian Assange has found a way to run for the Upper House of the Australian Senate, in spite of, you know, being detained under house arrest in Britain. Which makes sense, I guess. Along with Assange’s candidacy, WikiLeaks announced on Twitter that they’ll be running a nominee against the current Prime Minister, Julia Gillard.
WikiLeaks Begins Releasing Stratfor Internal Emails
27 Feb 2012 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
WikiLeaks is doing stuff that doesn’t involve Julian Assange’s career as a television personality – in this case leaking a cache of over 5 million internal emails from Stratfor, a “global intelligence” company. They reveal secret intelligence services provided to Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency, among others.

A US Military Intelligence Report, known as the “State of the Taliban 2012”, was leaked to the BBC and The Times recently. This report shows that the Taliban, backed by Pakistan, is set to take control of Afghanistan after the withdrawal of US and NATO forces. That’s pretty damn scary.

24 Oct 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments

Wikileaks Releases New Batch Of Diplomatic Cables
24 Aug 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Wikileaks is parceling out another bunch of diplomatic cables today, in case we’d forgotten about Julian Assange amidst all the other hubbub. Expect people to largely ignore the allegations of internal corruption and the details of John McCain’s conversations with that Gadaffi chap, and focus on the whole rape trial thing.
Julian Assange Applies ™ To His Name
01 Mar 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, is attempting to trademark his name for use in “public speaking services” and “entertainment services.” Personally I’d exercise a little more energy on the whole ‘I’m being extradited to Sweden for charges of rape and sexual assault,’ thing, but maybe this is more important.
WikiLeaks: ANC A Mess
21 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments

11 Jan 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments

16 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Pakistan’s relations with the U.S. were talked up pretty heavily in the latest Cablegate leaks; further, false leaks with heavy anti-Indian sentiment were spread around the country by major national newspapers. So it’s nice to see the Pakistani advertisers make the most of an awkward situation.

Increasingly it seems like Assange is proving to be a bigger story than the cables he most recently to be released – HiLoBrow artist, Joe Alterio, tries to put that right with his series of illustrations paired with the more bizarre political activities revealed in the latest batch of Wikileak cables.

Amazon.com: The Face Of Hypocrisy
09 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
We live in a world where business ethics trump their moral counterparts with ease, so perhaps we shouldn’t get too upset about this.
You may well remember that Amazon.com abandoned WikiLeaks after suffering less than subtle diplomatic pressure from the United States.
While disappointing, that kind of move was inevitable, perhaps even understandable. If the negative attention damaged the brand, Amazon has since committed public relations hara kiri. Cue global brandfail for Amazon.com in three, two, one…
NMA Explains Assange’s Situation [VIDEO]
09 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Watch the video – it should bring you up to speed. Oh, animated Taiwanese news clips. You educate, you entertain, you sort of fail to make sense despite sticking to the facts. What can’t you do? Are you free for lunch some time? Coffee, maybe?
WikiLeaks’ Assange Arrested In The UK
07 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Well, well, well. I guess we’ll be seeing that insurance policy of his sooner rather than later. WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been nicked in London on charges of “sexual crimes”. The warrant was issued in Sweden. Look, sex, the Swedish, and foreign people almost always leads to confusion.
