When he was exposing conservative politicians he was labeled a hero. He was even defended when allegations of sexual misconduct were leveled at him. Now that he is exposing a leftist establishment politician he is suddenly a villain. The thing is, he'd be happy to expose Trump as well but there's not much to expose because he hasn't been in the game - the political game - for that long. Plus the mainstream media is doing it's darndest to expose everything they can find out about him already, so there's no need for any sort of Wikileak on him. Not to mention, even in a political climate full of corruption she stands out for her staggering levels of corruption. There's a lot to expose. She's everything that is wrong with modern politics, personified.

you could say it is just a bunch of hot air but last weeks leaks did indeed cause a small fissure in the Democrats and resulted in Wasserman Schultz stepping down. And this could just be the beginning
It's completely fair. Exposing the truth is always good, suppressing it always bad when it comes to democracy. People deserve to know who they're voting for and what they truly stand for. Clinton does not stand with fair and honest democracy. This is a fact, based on those links. If she did, she'd let the election run it's course and if the case would be so, gladly accept defeat from Bernie Sanders. Or she'd beat him honestly.

Now, if Assange is exclusively targeting Clinton, there is some gray area. I see no reason to think of him as being a Trump supporter though, so it's not as if he's just trying to win an election for his candidate. He just truly believes that Hillary is awful, and she kind of is. Is she the lesser of two evils? Certainly from most points of view, though not all. So while I'd love him to dump all over Trump, there's simply less use for that.

As he's said in an interview (paraphrase) "Trump does a good enough job of dumping on himself, no need for me to do it".

Basically Trump talks so much I highly doubt there's much to find (that's not already public record) that has anything to do with the job at hand.

Let the truth out, all of it. The American people deserve nothing less as do the people asking to represent them.

he's been on MSNBC and CNN as well. Also Fox News gets much higher ratings than any other news channel so him appearing on it opens him up to the widest audience.
