Assange Speaks

Video journalist Mark Davis’s unprecedented access to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange continues, with an exclusive interview for Dateline with the Australian whistleblower.

He tells Mark he believes the Gillard Government is secretly providing the United States with information about Australians working with the whistleblowing group.

WikiLeaks' role in sparking the turmoil in Egypt and Tunisia and his soured relations with The New York Times and The Guardian also come under scrutiny.

And he speaks about this week’s extradition hearing in London, over Sweden’s request to question him over sexual assault allegations, which he strenuously denies.

So what’s next for the man who’s become the face of WikiLeaks?
