MEET JULIAN ASSANGE

WikiLeaks is all about shifting the power from the ‘authorities’ to the ‘people’.

Our government has that power. The media has that power. And now, we have power.

POWER

Top-heavy management

Autocratic internally

Democratic externally

WIKILEAKS BUSINESS STRUCTURE

Newspaper office – documents controlled, censored

Online office – free flow of information, lives forever, copied, ignores barriers of space and time

OLD MEDIA – NEW MEDIA

New media power

“the major force of power at present is communication power”

globalisation of communication

PHENOMENON

EXPLOITING NEWS PROCESSES

WikiLeaks reveals corruption and crimes against humanity from Governments

Governments try to shut down WikiLeaks

The people come to WikiLeaks side to keep the truth circulating

Now… that’s democracy 2.0

THE ANTI WEB

Love him or hate him.Whistle-blower or spy.Hero or troublemaker.

Anderson: “WikiLeaks has released more classified documents than the rest of the world’s media combined”

Assange: “the rest of the world’s media is doing such a bad job that a little group of activists is able to release more of that type of information than the rest of all those combined”
