Wikileaks aims for the best possible exposure of a leak. This influences in what form the information is published and over what timeframe. They dont just dump the entire leak and hope some journalist can be bothered to read it before the next big headline takes the focus away again. This takes a lot of work. Making sure your sources are protected takes a lot of work and sadly, there is only so much attention people spend on leaks.
