Index on Censorship and the Department of Journalism at City University London present:

Too much information? Security and censorship in the age of Wikileaks

Julian Assange, Founder, Wikileaks debates David Aaronovitch, Columnist, The Times.
Chaired by Jonathan Dimbleby

Whistleblowing website Wikileaks caused a sensation this summer with the publication of thousands of documents detailing NATO actions in Afghanistan. Was this a victory for free expression? Or a stunt that put hundreds of lives in danger? Is censorship a necessary evil in wartime? And will mass leaking of information change journalism?

City University London and Index on Censorship invite you to attend this lively debate.
