The Pentagon Papersb68 case established that publishers cannot be prosecuted for leaked information.
The UK Official Secrets Act means he could be prosecuted there, but with Cameron's government losing popularity it is under pressure to prove that Dave's not Obama's "poodle" just like Blair was Bush's, and a significant sector of the British public would see a trial of Assange as sucking up to the US and being a puppet rather than an ally.

Agreed, the press (which, like it or not, WikiLeaks is) can print any information5b4 they receive, regardless of how they came by it.
Plus, as he's an Australian whose site is registered in Sweden, what jurisdiction does the U.S. have over it?

Exactly. And under UK law Sarah Palin's threats against Assange meet the standard of criminal incitement. I'd love to see Palin indicted, extradited, convicted, and forced to spend a few years at Holloway
