Friday, July 12, 2024: 2:00 pm (Marillac Auditorium): This is a presentation on the modern history of leaks, from the Pentagon Papers to the end of WikiLeaks' publishing era. The talk looks at leak publishers and press consortiums, and the changes in how newsrooms, the public, and the powers that be have responded to leaks and leakers, asking how newsrooms have handled the rapidly changing landscape of leaks, hackers, and leak laundering. The talk concludes with a brief look at what AssangeLeaks can tell us about WikiLeaks and the government's case against it.
