British Scandal

Julian Assange | The Weird World of WikiLeaks | 4

12 Feb 2025

Description

If you think your job sucks, spare a thought for Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist James Ball. He spent three months living and working with Julian Assange on the leaks of hundreds of thousands of documents. And he has some tales to tell about the cult-like environment he was thrust into. Like how Assange was a deliberately weird, difficult man with a "pathological need to lie". How Assange’s reaction to learning of a dangerous informer in his ranks was… surprising. And why, ultimately, he thinks WikiLeaks failed as a force for good.Listen to British Scandal on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen early and ad-free on Wondery+.
