One thank you for everything you have and contiue to do. My question is in regards to the media handling and your opinion of Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden. I think highly of both of them but it seems that Snowden got far more press from the media and sympathy (in some circles anyway) then Chelsea Manning, who was far more condemed and recived less attention from the media. Can you explain why Snowden recived far more attention then Manning and even praise by some in the press and Manning was mainly forgotten and even ridculed?

Sorry for the second question, but considering the decline of America's mainstream media 1) Has it reached a point where the media is past the point of no return and the 4th estate is no longer salvageable? 2) If you were in the same position now, you were when you first leaked the papers, would you go to the mainstream media or would you have posted them online instead via wikileaks or some other form?
