Julian Assange On 60 Minutes

I'm not a huge fan of his, but here's the story. Julian Assange is quite intelligent, and serves a purpose, but he strikes me as simply someone who exists to antagonize the U.S. Government. For instance, in his release of State Department cables recently, it seemed to be more of an embarrassment than a revelation, to me. However, Julian Assange, in my opinion, exists because our media fails to do it's job. He exists because they don't do investigative journalism anymore, and they accept government statements as Gospel. See the Iraq War as an example.
