Liberal countries in the world have successfully damaged the very life force of journalism. They saw it as a threat to their control of the people, of democracy. Julian Assange was the figure that threatened liberal control as corrupt and is paying the price. Since then journalism has had the lifeblood sucked dry and most news reporting has a bias. Governments destroyed Assange, a true journalist and truthteller and plunged the field into disarray and have successfully borrowed the devices that journalism used, like public relations and the web, and these devices have been harnessed for political gain and means.
