Manning and the Barricades

Bradley Manning's defense starts today, so journo turnout high again. As always, follow @kgosztola.  
UPDATE #1 :   Entire "Collateral Murder" video played in court, and transcript compared to how David Finkel reported it.  Long-running claim is that Finkel got "leaked" version well before Manning did anything with it.  Our book: http://bit.ly/1aOqk2N 

UPDATE #2   Testimony of person who had online chats with Manning--a surprise to me -- well before he leaked anything should give lie, finally, to notion of so many (even many liberals) that he leaked mainly out of sexual confusion or some other personal problems and only came up with "political" or "antiwar" excuse after his arrest, and managed to sucker his supporters.
