At best, Wikileaks has a strong political leaning that clouds their whistle-blowing mission and leads some to question their motivation (even several years ago, some commentators saw Wikileaks as less whistle-blower and more anti-United States -- http://foreignpolicy.com/2012/08/16/how-wikileaks-blew-it/ http://foreignpolicy.com/2012/08/16/how-wikileaks-blew-it/).
