Four days have gone by since the New York Times at long last called for the Justice Department to scrap its case against Julian Assange, the Wkileaks founder whose disclosures have greatly angered the political establishment.
Five leading European newspapers simultaneously published that call. They were Britain's Guardian, France's Le Monde, Germany's Der Spiegel and Spain's El País.
Letter urging end of Assange case

Checks of Google and other search engines show that a few major media organizations took note of the "open letter." Yet, almost nothing turns up that shows any other U.S. media joining the call to defend the principle of freedom of speech and press that is greatly jeopardized by the case concocted against Assange.
One of the few media organizations to pick up the Times's call was the Opinionist, which does not rank as a major corporate media outlet.
How is it that nearly all corporate media continue to avert their gaze from the Assange matter? The answer plainly is that they are NOT INTERESTED in freedom of press. This attitude can only be the result of a conspiracy on an immense scale, a conspiracy by top-level "liberal" tycoons to threaten media with advertising losses if they don't toe the line.
In case that notion sounds wild, consider the corporate advertising boycott of Elon Musk's Twitter social platform over exactly the issue of speech control. Rather than really being worried about "hate speech," the corporate moguls seem more concerned about challenges to Agenda 30 and "the Great Re-Set" that crop up in discussions of covid or global climate models.
That's why these fat cats don't want anything showing up that rocks Joe Biden's boat too much. They still favor a conspiracy of silence on the contents of Hunter Biden's laptop, which imply that the senior Biden was and is a national security threat. Biden's entire policy is to strengthen the goals of climate fanatics like Laurence D. Fink, the head of the colossal investment fund Blackrock, which has enormous influence in media via direct investment and investment in other stakeholders.
