Wikileaks – the future of investigative journalism?
Profile: Who are WikiLeaks? | |
|
Whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks has released a videowhich it claims shows the killing of civilians by the US military in Baghdad in 2007. It is the latest in a long list of "leaks" published by the secretive site, which has established a reputation for publishing sensitive material from governments and other high-profile organisations. In October 2009, for example, it posted a list of names and addressesof people it claimed belonged to the British National Party (BNP). The BNP said the list was "malicious forgery". During the 2008 US elections, it published screenshots of the e-mail inbox, pictures and address book of vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Other controversial documents hosted on the site include a copy of the Standard Operating Procedures for Camp Delta, a document that detailed restrictions placed on prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. | |
