Colin McEnroe Show: What Makes Julian Assange So Appealing?

I can't make up my mind about Julian Assange, the mastermind -- founder seems too tame a word -- behind Wikileaks, but I get the feeling I'm not meant to have a peaceful moment in which to think about it, and neither is Assange.

At the moment, Assange is the object of attempted criminal prosecution by Sweden, although, as we'll discuss today, the actual nature of the crime he committed seems to be up for grabs.

In fact, while trying to pin down today whether Assange is accused of anything most of us would recognize as a crime, it struck me that I wasn't really sure which sources on this question I could trust. (Which is sort of a Wiklileaks moment.)

In an era when many people feel the old brand names of journalism just aren't as reliable or prolific as they used to be, whom do you trust?
