Wikileaks Preparing A Massive Dump Of U.S. Intelligence Files On Iraq


Exclusive: WikiLeaks Collaborating With Media Outlets On Release Of Iraq Documents -- Newsweek

Iain Overton, editor of The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, tells Declassified that his organization has teamed up with media organizations—including major television networks and one or more American media outlets—in an unspecified number of countries to produce a set of documentaries and stories based on the cache of Iraq War documents in the possession of WikiLeaks.

to stay relevant, WikiLeaks goes bigger and bigger with their dumps.. and that increases the likelihood of making mistakes, e.g. not taking out all names, not verifying sources

An NGO with a ego like this is dangerous
