60 Minutes Steve Kroft's False Claims About Pvt. Bradley Manning

In an interview with Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, 60 Minutes’ Steve Kroft made the false claim that Private Bradley Manning, who allegedly gave information to Wikileaks, was seen as a “traitor” by the American people. Kroft offered no evidence to back up this claim and was called out by Assange who said, “That’s clearly not true.” Kroft went on to lecture Assange about journalistic ethics.
