Generation X - Season 1 Episode 2 -

When Julian Assange created WikiLeaks, it was no coincidence that he was a member of Generation X. After decades of watching government corruption scandals unfold, such as Iran Contra and the Pentagon Papers, Gen-Xers developed a distrust of those in power, further evidenced by paranoia films like "Dr. Strangelove" and "War Games." The decades-long forces that led to the WikiLeaks release are examined through original interviews and memorable footage.
