ジュリアン・アサンジの主張をめぐる、「科学的ジャーナリズム」の不在とその萌芽（？） #WL_JP

Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre

.@carlgardner i dont know if what Assange is alleging about Swedish/UK legal impropriety is true or not. I WANT JOURNALISTS TO FACT CHECK IT

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

@bengoldacre I know; to do that you start by realising there *may be* two sides to the story that the process is dodgy, not just one.

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

@bengoldacre It's very interesting that reporting has been so influenced by the fact that one side is saying a lot, the other side nothing.

Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre

@carlgardner this is a perfectly checkable set of allegations about legal impropriety, and the fact that nobody has done so is pathetic.

Andrew Brooks @taxbod

Fight, fight. If @carlgardner wasn't so much of a gent, he'd kick @bengoldacre 's arse. #assange

Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre

@taxbod i think u've got the wrong end of the stick, afaict me and @carlgardner are pretty much agreeing with each other on need for info?

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

@bengoldacre @taxbod I think so too! No tweetwar here. I do what I can, but agree it's a job for the MSM, and that they've not been great.

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

@bengoldacre Min. of Justice press office say they can't comment on treatment of individual prisoners @arusbridger @iankatz1000 @afuahirsch

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

@bengoldacre Some journos have dug a bit - here's a "prison source" quoted that #Assange *asked* to be segregated http://bit.ly/giwsGs

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

.@wikileaks Pl. can you confirm or deny if Julian Assange asked to be in prison segregation unit as per source quoted: http://bit.ly/eQ8hta

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

@bengoldacre I think journos should also be asking direct questions like this http://twitter.com/carlgardner/status/15816184184180736

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

Neither Ministry of Justice nor http://www.fsilaw.com/ will comment on prison treatment of #Assange.

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

@bengoldacre | RT @davidallengreen: RT @mePadraigReidy: Swedish Bar Assn Head on criticism of #assange process http://bit.ly/gYJZzI

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

.@wikileaks Please could you answer the question I put to you earlier: http://twitter.com/carlgardner/status/15816184184180736

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

@MarksLarks @wikileaks Can you please confirm/deny what this "prison source" says? http://twitter.com/carlgardner/status/15816184184180736

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

The CPS told me they made the decisions on bail #anyquestions

Carl Gardner @carlgardner

And I've asked @MarksLarks and @wikileaks to help clarify how #Assange came to be segregated in prison #anyquestions Media should be asking!

Henk Vengeance @badtiems

@bengoldacre so all you want is all allegations to be fully investigated, and anyone accused to be innocent until proven guilty, then?

Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre

.@you_twits, i want the allegations of impropriety made against the swedish and uk legal systems to be factchecked by journalists.

Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre

@arusbridger @iankatz1000 hi, is anyone going to factcheck the allegations made by assange/stephens of legal impropriety by Swedes/UK?

Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre

@arusbridger @iankatz1000 no idea if true, but it all seems really checkable, there've been 11,000 articles on assange so far, but not this

Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre

@arusbridger @iankatz1000 feels a bit more useful - and answerable - than speculation on whether someone raped someone or falsely alleged &c

clog @clogsilk

@bengoldacre why do you particularly want journalists to fact check? Why not anyone who could do the job, journalist or not?

Ben Goldacre @bengoldacre

@clogsilk i think this is a time when we need a respected news organisation with resources, access, specialist knowledge and est reputation

lili @lilliray

Why don't you fact check??RT @bengoldacre .@carlgardner i dont know if what Assange is alleging about Swedish/UK (cont) http://tl.gd/7i17ba
