This man deserves to be free.
He just needs to be innocent until proven guilty. (Fair trail)
Misleading title. He did not win the appeal.
He won the opportunity to have an appeal hearing.
It is last week’s news anyhow.
pretty brutal what they are doing to assange

I vote for changing the title to make it clearer that he won the right. Change to “Wikileaks founder wins [right to appeal] U.S. extradition”
Misleading headline.
They’re just fucking with him. Giving him some hope, then they’ll take it away again 😔
Emphasis mine, since the headline is poorly worded. He didn’t win an appeal, the court agreed that he can appeal. He still could be shipped off to the US and then eventually <blacksite prison name not found>.
Nice when is the case being held?
