Actually Assange is the one constant face behind Wikileaks; there is an advisory board, but it's very informal to the point that people on it never did anything, never met the other advisors, and sometimes never even knew they were on it. For all intents and purposes Assange is the only person behind Wikileaks.

If Wikileaks was a federal asset or started as one, then Assange was an asset as well, even if he didn't know it. That's my defense behind the title, which does ask if Assange was a federal asset.

Then what happened to those Chinese anti-gov't leaders that made up the original Wikileaks? Did they just go to other NED-funded USAID-funded projects?

Assange may have been a federal asset, but he face turned in 2010, plus, didn't ye type in this:

I am purposely not singling out Assange here, and that is because he is only one piece of Wikileaks. We will come back to him later but Wikileaks is certainly bigger than just Assange — or at least started out that way — and it is important to separate the two.
