Just because you can think of one journalist you wouldn't want handling financial leaks doesn't mean they're all rotten. Were the Panama Papers (ICIJ) not well

Just because you can think of one journalist you wouldn't want handling financial leaks doesn't mean they're all rotten. Were the Panama Papers (ICIJ) not well handled? Even the Los Angeles Times apparently had the guts to publish a story that took the side of low level bank employees, eventually bringing down the chairman of Wells Fargo. And what's the implied better alternative, anyway? When Wikileaks does a data dump, most people aren't poring over it all night, it's usually people in the same media you decry who bring important revelations to mass attention. Giving them a head start to potentially write a great story doesn't seem like something that should be wildly controversial.
