WikiLeaks Threatens To Sue The Guardian Newspaper

WikiLeaks is threatening to sue the Guardian over a tell-all book written by the newspaper. This is the second book to come out that focuses on Assange and is written by former friends / allies of WikiLeaks.

The founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, is threatening to sue The Guardian for libel over claims in a book just published by the newspaper. He is believed to be upset by the suggestion that he initially refused to remove the names of local Afghan informants mentioned in Afghan war logs, allegedly saying they would "deserve it" if they were killed as a result of the leaks.
