[See NewsBusters for more.] Wikileaks Founder Julian Assange doesn’t think that MSNBC or the New York Times would have been interested in the Democratic National Committee e-mails that his website released, messages that showed party collusion with Hillary Clinton. Talking to Fox News’s Megyn Kelly, he explained, “I would like to believe that no organization, no organization, no media organization in the United States would not have published the DNC e-mails.” Assange added, “But I don't think that's true actually. I think MSNBC wouldn't have published them. I think the New York Times wouldn't have published most of them. And that's sad.” Assange concluded, “It's an incredible politicization in this election of the media.”
