Alan Rusbridger is not telling us

Having watched Alan Rusbridger interviewed on Channel 4 News, I must say that there appears to be some questions (questions that were not asked by Jackie Long).

Apparently back in July, in scenes reminiscent of the House of Special Purpose in Ekaterinburg, Alan Rusbridger was escorted by British secret security services down into the cellars of the Guardian building where he was forced to witness the destruction of the Guardian's computers with hammers (presumably sledge hammers).

Not only was he forced to witness this, he was also (we are led to believe) intimidated into "authorising" the destruction himself.

Mr Rusbridger is a news editor, and yet he kept silent on what appears to have been a sensational and dramatic newsworthy incident.

Why?

Doesn't make sense does it.

You would think it would be on the front page of the Guardian during July, and also on pages 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.

Which suggests there are aspects of this story that Alan Rusbridger is not telling us.

What is he not telling us, and why is he not telling?
