Wikileaks exposes the lies of U.S. diplomacy
Wikileaks is again publishing a trove of documents, in this case classified U.S. State Department diplomatic cables. The whistle-blower website will gradually be releasing more than 250,000 of these documents in the coming months so that they can be analyzed and gain the attention they deserve. The cables are internal, written communications among U.S. embassies around the world and also to the U.S. State Department. Wikileaks described the leak as "the largest set of confidential documents ever to be released into the public domain [giving] an unprecedented insight into U.S. government foreign activities."

Complaint filed against Dr. Mellisa Farely
Over the years, Dr Farley has published a number of papers and documents about sex work, making claims that all sex work is a form of violence against women. She has used several of her studies to back this up. In 2008 Dr Farley published the paper What Really Happened in New Zealand afteron her website critiquing the Report of the Prostitution Law Prostitution was Decriminalized in 2003? Review Committee. This critique contains several errors of fact that appear to be deliberately designed to mislead people.
