Benedict Cumberbatch stars as Julian Assange the founder of Wikileaks in "The Fifth Estate" and he chats about his role and his observations about Wikileaks.
Alicia Vikander is on the red carpet at "TIFF" talking to us about her fascinating role in "The Fifth Estate", which is the "Wikileaks" film story of controversial journalist Julian Assange.
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will find out Monday whether he can be extradited from the UK to the US. Should the extradition be approved, Assange would face espionage charges over the publication of secret American military documents. But according to Newser, whichever side loses is expected to appeal, which could lead to years more legal wrangling. Stella Moris is Assange's partner and the mother of his two sons. She's appealed to President Trump via Twitter to grant a pardon to Assange before he leaves office. Lawyers for the US government said in their hearing in the fall that Assange's defense team had raised issues that were neither relevant nor admissible.
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange arrives for his first in-person court appearance since he was moved to London's Belmarsh prison from Ecuador's embassy in April to determine whether he can be released from prison as he fights extradition to the United States. The 48-year-old Australian has been in custody at the high-security Belmarsh prison in southwest London since being dramatically dragged from Ecuador's embassy in April. He could be sentenced to spend up to 175 years in a US prison if convicted on all charges filed under the US Espionage Act. IMAGES
The Ecuadorian 'embassy cat,' a feline residing at Quito's embassy in London, put on his Sunday best and presented himself to the press as journalists gathered outside the building for a press conference with Wikileaks founder Julian Assange. Embassy cat, who has his own Twitter account with more than 22,000 followers, came to the window in a red and white striped tie and tried to make a statement, until he got distracted by the curtains and went back inside, much to the disappointment of the journalists outside.
