Assange has publicly stated that the DNC servers being hacked and Wikileaks obtaining DNC emails are two separate things and it seems that journalists conflating them are unable to count to 2.

If Assange were say that any state other than Russia were behind the attacks, I'd be inclined to believe him, but since it's Russia and Assange works for RT, I wouldn't put money on anything he says about the Russia state activity.

Exactly, why can't it be possible that Assange is an ass, but Wikileaks isn't in cahoots with Russia, and Russia hacked the DNC?
