Assange: There is 'Incredible Politicization' of the American Media

Assange said he would publish "good information" on anyone.

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange accused the U.S. media of being highly politicized in the second part of an interview with Fox News's Megyn Kelly.

He specifically called out MSNBC and the New York Times, saying they would not have published the incriminating emails leaked from the Democrat National Committee.

"I'd like to believe that no media organization would not publish the DNC emails," Assange told Fox News' The Kelly File. "[But] I think MSNBC wouldn't publish [nor would] The New York Times ... That's sad."

Assange also said the Clintons have created a McCarthy-like environment, accusing the Trump campaign of working with Russian agents.

"The Trump campaign has a lot of things wrong with it," Assange said, "but as far as we can see, being Russian agents is not one of them."

When Kelly asked if Wikileaks would publish damaging information about Trump, Assange responded: "It's really hard for us to release anything worse than what comes out of Donald Trump's mouth every second day."

"If we have good information on Trump, we publish that. If we have good information on Hillary and the Democrats, we publish that."

The first part of Assange's interview with Kelly aired on Wednesday night where he promised thousands of pages of Hillary Clinton documents.
