Time Journalist Calls for Drone Killing of WikiLeaks' Julian Assange 
---------------------------------------------------------------------


 
In other press freedom news, a prominent journalist has declared his
support for the extrajudicial murder of Wiki Leaks' founder and
publisher Julian Assange. Time magazine's senior national correspondent,
Michael Grunwald, tweeted: "I can't wait to write a defense of the drone
strike that takes out Julian Assange." Wiki Leaks responded by calling
for Grunwald's dismissal. Grunwald has since deleted his tweet.
