It just doesn’t really matter what Wikileaks say on their Twitter account, the important thing is the documents they host on their site. They’re not a newspaper. They only ask that people examine the documents they publish. Their own impartiality and credibility is simply not an important issue. Maybe if there were known cases of Wikileaks intentionally taking parts of documents out of context to make things look damning, that would be a concern, but i’m not aware of anything like that. They are a conduit for whistle-blowing - if they are holding back documents that don’t suit an agenda then presumably the whistleblower would leak to some other outlet, so I don’t see a big concern there either.
