anybody see this: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/wikileaks/
was aired out here last night...
was quite impressed with the unexpected (from frontline) tone of the documentary, as they presented the story for what it is:
"... the biggest intelligence breach in U.S. history -- the leaking of more than a half million classified documents on the WikiLeaks website throughout 2010. At the center of the controversy stands Bradley E. Manning, the Army intelligence analyst who's charged with handing them over..."
and the biggest 'secret' - since was first i've noted this fact = manning is gay and was picked upon in basic training, thus providing the motive
and even more impressed or surprised? (or not) that
"WikiLeaks Is Not Happy with Its Frontline Treatment"
and they truly did spotlight that assange is a megalomaniac, as proved by his dealings with the newyork times and how he threatened them with cutting them out of the deal to publish the story of the criminal document dump by manning

On Tuesday night, PBS-Frontline aired a sweeping documentary on WikiLeaks exploring the role of Bradley Manning in the organization and the controversy surrounding the group's mission. Already, the documentary has divided reviewers, with those sympathetic to WikiLeaks labeling the film a hatchet job and others celebrating it for its depth. WikiLeaks itself has said the program is "hostile and misrepresents WikiLeaks' views" and attempts to build an "espionage" case against founder Julian Assange. Here's a clip of the film followed by reviews.
