Nothing on CNN's front page as of yet. Don't know if on TV. Imagine editorial staff doing catch up, but wonder why they weren't collaborating earlier. Maybe AOL/TimeWarner are in there?

No leaks involving Americans (yet).

    Editor says there may be some: https://twitter.com/ploechinger/status/716773530436825088 https://twitter.com/ploechinger/status/716773530436825088 https://twitter.com/ploechinger/status/716763595820941312 https://twitter.com/ploechinger/status/716763595820941312 Also, I hope journalists are asking the "accused" for their comments, and giving them time to respond, as journalistic best practice.

      "Some" really isn't good enough. From what I've been able to put together, the whole thing seems choreographed if not outright rigged. Why is it that Putin and Assad seem to be the only targets with the initial release? I will have a hard time believing any of the reporting until the raw data is released.

        The group putting out this leak is also funded by George Soros and Rockefeller Funds through OpenSociety. Makes me skeptical to say the least.

        So is the data correct or is it not? Even if this was orchestrated by the usual US suspects, the rest of the world has some house cleaning to do.

        Süddeutsche Zeitung is funded by Soros? Any proof? And here I thought it was owned by five Munich publisher families for generations - Friedmann, Goldschagg, Seidlein, Schwingenstein and Dürrmeier... (BTW, people will believe your rather out-of-the-box accusations more if you don't create separate brand-new accounts to post them.)

  That does seem extremely odd, considering the alleged size of the leak. Waiting to see what the explanation is there. The "Oh this is the biggest leak ever because it's lots of TB" is also stupid. For all we know it's huge because it contains a bunch of scanned faxes.
