Julian Assange tweeted about the Paradise Papers revelations: “Great sourcing! But ICIJ is still based in DC, is Ford, Soros, Omidyar funded and still "sits on" nearly everything.” The last is a reference to this tweet by Bastian Obermayer of the Süddeutsche Zeitung which obtained the documents: “PARADISE PAPERS is the thing we sat on 4 a year. 13 million docs, 380+ journos, 97 media orgs, 67 countries.”
