   @how's note: The Oxford Union already censored previous appearances of people   
   related to Wikileaks, notably Heather Marsh.   
      
   In an attempt to highlight the importance of whistleblowers, Julian Assange   
   chose to have WikiLeaks' Collateral Murder footage as background for his speech   
   at the Sam Adams Awards, an award dedicated to whistleblowers. The ceremony was   
   organized by the Oxford Union. As a result of the video playing in the   
   background and unsuccessful attempts to vet Julian's speech, the Union pulled   
   the live stream from the event and spent two days substituting the US Army   
   massacre footage with their logo. The Union claimed they feared that the US   
   government would take legal action concerning "copyright" of the Apache gun   
   camera footage. Wikileaks advised the Union that by law and practice the US   
   government does not claim copyrights on footage or documents that it produces,   
   the Union still decided to censor the video.
