OSCAR-winning documentary film-maker Michael Moore has taken time out from promoting his new film to meet WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange .
The American has been a supporter of Mr Assange for years but they had never met in person.
Moore paid a visit to the Ecuadorian embassy in London, where Mr Assange is living as he seeks to avoid extradition to Sweden, where he is wanted for questioning over a sex allegation , which he has always denied.
He believes that if he travels to Sweden he will be taken to the United States to be quizzed about the activities of WikiLeaks.
