Assange starts TV career

The opening episode of Julian Assange’s new talk show featured an interview with militant leader Hassan Nasrallah, whose Syria-backed Hezbollah militia is considered a terrorist organisation in the US and Europe.

The half-hour segment aired on Kremlin-backed broadcaster RT yesterday and featured questions about Israel, Lebanon, Syria, theology, and encryption.

The premiere of The World Tomorrow marks the launch of Assange’s unlikely career in television.
