Wikileaks Suing The Guardian Over Manafort Story

From the GoFundMe page:

“The Guardian has published claims from unnamed sources that Paul Manafort had “secret talks” with Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London on three occasions. These claims are completely false and the story has been fabricated.

The Embassy’s visitor logs – maintained by Ecuador – show no such visits, since they did not occur.

This is not the first time that the Guardian, and in particular its writer Luke Harding, have fabricated a story about Assange.

WikiLeaks is suing The Guardian for libel over this latest fabrication. We must hold The Guardian to account: your contribution will help make this lawsuit possible. Please make a donation today.”
