Wikileaker a "hero"?

This sort of thinking is why - despite its academic renown - we always referred to the place as 'Berzerkley'.

Quote:
As the fallout from WikiLeaks continues, the debate over whether or not the alleged leaker is a treasonous villain or a First Amendment hero makes an unexpected stop Tuesday in a legislative chamber in Berkeley, California.

There, the City Council is set to vote on a resolution that hails Pfc. Bradley Manning a hero, calls for his immediate release and for charges against him to be dropped.

Here, the author of the resolution, Bob Meola, tells CNN why he thinks Manning is a hero, while City Council member Gordon Wozniak explains why he will be voting against the measure.

And so it goes...
