Critics Review
“Journalist Gosztola issues a stout defense of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in this searing polemic against the U.S. government’s encroachment on the freedom of the press. … This is an in-depth overview of the case against Assange and an impassioned defense of the need to hold truth to power. Freedom of the press advocates will heed this full-throated rallying cry.” —Publishers Weekly
“The irony and perversity of the vicious web in which Assange is entangled is laid bare in Guilty of Journalism. People who care about access to information, who want their governments to honor their constitutions and operate transparently, and who care about justice ought to read Guilty of Journalism, become further informed, and add their voices to justice for Julian Assange and to all the others who have sacrificed themselves to bring to light the corruption and crimes of governmental nexuses and the complicit prestige media.” —Kim Petersen, Dissident Voices
