I know that it's documented that the json encoder will produce base64 "Array 
and slice values encode as JSON arrays, except that []byte encodes as a 
base64-encoded string", but I am getting a base64 response when I pass in a 
string

response := []string
response = append(response, 
"http://localhost:10000/obscured/media/f7/c3/e6/a74f71b64712bf11af31b2d027dadbe41f63313103d14a528043d66173";)

w.WriteHeader(http.StatusCreated)
if err := json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(response); err != nil{
    // handle error
}

Will produce the base64 equivalent of the URL, instead of json.

Given that every time I have asked for help on this list I have discovered 
that it's something that I am doing wrong, I do NOT mind if someone 
helpfully points me toward the documentation I am misreading
