Assange is a paranoid asshat who managed to blow the Swedish incident totally out of proportion. The case would likely had been written off long ago if he had bothered to go to a hearing at a police station, but since he thinks that Sweden is full of black helicopters waiting to get him he rather starts a media campaign against the country, and the anti- crowd across the world is eager to believe his gasbaggery.

He would fit perfectly at Russia Today.

EDIT: He would have gotten a Polonium lunch long ago if he had been doing the same things to Russia Being anti-American is relatively risk free and gathers a huge following among the anti- set and the hard left…
