There are probably at least 50 journalists - nearly all journalists of color working in the global south - that I would rank as more deserving of being freed than #Assange.
For example,
- Huang Xueqin, a #Chinese feminist who covered #MeToo
- #Kashmiri journalist Irfan Mehraj
- #Vietnamese pro-democracy reporter Pham Doan Trang
- Saudi journalist Nazeer Al-Majed.
Why don't their cases get as much attention?
