Julian Assange: American press supports ‘demon’ Hillary Clinton

In an interview with New York Times investigative reporter Jo Becker on Wednesday, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange accused the press of supporting Hillary Clinton, whom he likened to a “demon.”

“The American liberal press, in falling over themselves to defend Hillary Clinton, are erecting a demon that is going to put nooses around everyone’s necks as soon as she wins the election, which is almost certainly what she’s going to do,” Assange said in the interview, which was broadcast live Wednesday on Facebook.

WikiLeaks has already aimed to influence the 2016 election. In July, the organization released a trove of emails hacked from the Democratic National Committee’s servers that showed Democratic staffers criticizing Sen. Bernie Sanders. Assange has defended the release of the emails, which prompted a flurry of resignations within the DNC. Assange has been accused of helping fuel conspiracy theories about the circumstances surrounding the death of Democratic staffer Seth Rich, who was killed in a mugging earlier this year.

Text of Julian's words.
Wikileaks tweeted:

No, Assange didn't say Clinton is a 'demon'. The 'demon' is neo-McCarthyist hysteria erected by the liberal press:

[I can see how it could be misconstrued.]

Wikileaks also published corrections to the NYT article:

My guess is the dumps will start shortly after Monday.

(In any event, Assange promised it before the first "debate." If there is one).

*For all this to mean anything as far as making Jill Stein President instead of Hillary. First Hillary needs to be hit hard in the polls so that Trump becomes the front-runner. Then people need to get really scared of Trump, so that this becomes a 4 way race. At that point Hillary devotees, like those at Kos, will see less risk in voting for Jill. If Trump or Hillary are ahead in the polls by the end of October, and Stein and Johnson are a considerable distance behind, then the path of least risk will be seen by many, possibly including myself, to be Hillary.

Jill Stein for President because we don't have a choice.

*If we had no election fraud
