WikiLeaks Triumphs Thanks To Investigative Journalism Failure

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


At first glance, Julian Assange doesn’t look like your average journalistic freedom fighter. Assange, through his watchdog organization known as WikiLeaks, is responsible for the release of the largest number of classified U.S. documents in history 391,831 previously confidential reports of “significant action” that occurred during the Iraq War. As taxpayers and voters, we are the ones who supply the government the means to engage in these conflicts. We supply the appropriate money and support and in return they supply us with security and peace of mind provided we don’t ask a lot of questions. But at what cost does our peace of mind exist? Shamefully, it comes at the price of Iraqi lives. Through the veil of “national security,” injustices reported in the Iraq War logs were allowed to continue because U.S. officials purposely turned a blind eye toward the suspected torture, which went unreported by American media. Investigative journalism has entered a sorry state in this country. Present news corporations work hand-in-hand with government officials. What used to be a powerful check to the mightiest government and military in the world has since transformed into an enfeebled industry bent on expanding the partisan gap. WikiLeaks may have created a new advent in investigative journalism, but it’s up to the rest of the media to follow suit. Journalists must investigate instances of wrongdoing by this nation. Otherwise, our beacon of justice will remain nothing but a flickering lightbulb to other countries.
