Biography vs. Autobiography

This isn't an autobigraphy. That title implies Assange wrote it himself. This is a biography, and biographies need not be "authorised".

Nowadays, it's worthy of remark when a celebrity's autobiography isn't written by a ghostwriter. So much so that, afaik, nobody's bothered to coin a retronym for it, though I'd favor self-written autobiography.

Newsworthy?

You say that like WikiLeaks actually has something to do with the WMF. In truth, it's barely even a wiki - if at all.

No, otherwise I would have grouped them together.

I maintain that your comment strongly implies it.

Edited by author.

If i was him, once realizing i couldn't prevent the publishers from going ahead with the publishing of the material, i would retribute by leaking the contents to try to hurt the sales...

Did Assange really expect it was gonna be possible to keep his biography from "leaking"?

With all his experience with Wikileaks, did he really thought it would be possible to keep his biography from coming out?
