Mitch McConnell: WikiLeaks Chief "High-Tech Terrorist"
U.S. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell is calling the founder of the online site WikiLeaks a "high-tech terrorist" for releasing classified material from the U.S. government.
McConnell says that the online release of secret diplomat exchanges has done "enormous damage" to the country and to its relationship with its allies.
McConnell tells NBC's "Meet the Press" that he hopes WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will be prosecuted for the disclosures. And he says that if it's found that Assange hasn't violated the law, then the law should be changed.
Of Assange, McConnell says, "I think the man is a high-tech terrorist."
