Julian Assange arrives in Bangkok before expecting to plead guilty in court

from his UK prison after striking a plea deal with US prosecutors, but make no mistake: He’s no hero.

Yes, information from insiders looking to report real abuse by government agencies should have an outlet, and if not taken seriously by authorities, given to the media to galvanize public pressure for reform.
