The Case For WikiLeaks As Legitimate Journalism

Culture

With the accepted baseline standards for journalism these days, it is a wonder how many people can be rather pompous when it comes to conceding that WikiLeaks is just a new type of journalistic organization. In this article I will write a Wikileaks field guide of sorts which will explain what the organization is and demonstrate that the site is a useful source of journalism; it publishes and edits newsworthy information, just like any other media outlet.
