Adam Butcher's short Bradley Manning Had secrets which uses chat room logs at text is worth a look.
Looking at Bradley's Pembrokeshire website again Tom - which you've linked to below. A couple of interesting things i noticed this time - the link to the Hutton report on the 'suicide' of David Kelly - accused of course by the UK government of leaking classified information. And the announcement of the debut album of Bridgend band Funeral for a Friend whose music we listened to a lot when we were working on Gary Owen's Love Steals Us From Loneliness #NTW07
The Guardian have posted a great article about The Radicalisation of Bradley Manning, with interviews with both Tim Price and John McGrath
You can still find an archived version of the website Bradley Manning made for Pembrokeshire here
Bradley Manning's pretrial begins tomorrow - and on Saturday it's his birthday. There will be a lot of news about him tomorrow. I'm working on the Multiplatform design for the show, and I'll be sharing some of my ideas in the weeks and months to come. In the meantime, I thought anyone interested in this show would appreciate this video about his personal life.
