All humans have perceptions of the way things are -- based on facts, anecdotes, culture, emotions, personal experience, intellectual discussion, reading. When a human being hears something, of course it's colored by their pre-prepared understanding. To a human without a pre-built perception and context with which to evaluate it, their evaluation of information about Clinton would be "Who is Clinton? What is information? How am I speaking even though I don't understand language?"
And yes information is usually damning because of bad things that were done (ignoring the frequent instances where this is not the case, like someone who votes against the "stop child porn [and also eradicate half the bill of rights] act") but Wikileaks has an opportunity to leak this information when there is time to research, discuss, fully understand the data (months ago) or at the last possible second where it will have the most sensational impact with the sole purpose of turning the election instead of informing anyone, with minimal time to vet, discuss, understand, make sense of the results. That is now.
