Assange: UK Media Silent on Trident Leaks Due to Self-Censorship
The UK media’s silence on the recent revelations casting doubts on safety and security issues within the UK Trident submarine nuclear deterrent program proves the existence of self-censorship, Julian Assange, the WikiLeaks founder, told the Democracy Now news program in an interview on Wednesday.
MOSCOW (Sputnik) — William McNeilly, a 25-year-old engineer, claimed in his 18-page report, posted by WikiLeaks earlier this month, that Trident nuclear deterrent security procedures are inadequate and described the overall state of the Trident program as a "disaster waiting to happen."
