US Extradition Of Julian Assange Hits Roadblock—What Now? (w/ Mohamed Elmaazi‪)‬ Unauthorized Disclosure

You probably know that Kevin Gosztola spends a lot of his time covering the political case against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Given that Assange was granted an appeal hearing (the first positive development in a long time), he invited London-based journalist Mohamed Elmaazi on the show.

Mohamed covered the latest Assange hearing at the British High Court of Justice for The Dissenter—another reason why it made sense to offer him a platform to share his reporting and analysis of what happened.



During the episode, Mohamed breaks down the specific legal issues that were at issue and will be part of Assange's limited but important appeal. A particular problem for the United States government is the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.



Mohamed and Kevin highlight why this appeal could finally be an opening for defeating the U.S. government's push to extradite Assange and put a journalist on trial.
