The thing is, it's just a network. It's not an institution by itself doing all the work, just a platform for investigative journalists from different outlets to work together. Do you think that Hotel owner in Bavaria was, just because he organized the stay of the head of states, able to influence or even steer, as accused here, the conversation of the G8 group? The idea seems laughable.
I mean the criticism would probably be kinda useful and interesting to consider, would it have been published after the participating journalists said "that was it. That's all we got", but no, the publification of the leak just started and you can be sure, as confirmed by SZ, there's more to come. Most western countries have been implicated (https://twitter.com/thereaIbanksy/status/716740923615350784 https://twitter.com/thereaIbanksy/status/716740923615350784) and the db will be made searchable next month.
Also, most of the Wikipedia page on criticism of the Center for Public Integrity is filled with accusation of being "liberal biased" and being "anti-Koch brothers"
