Wikileaks 100% had a narrative, it was one of the things that disappointed me most about them.

In general, I was on the side of this information needing to come out, I just really wish Wikileaks hadn't politicized it the way they did.



WikiLeaks has a 100:1 ratio of words in leaked documents to narrative words, at LEAST. Meanwhile The Intercept has a 1:100 ratio. You can't dismiss this difference as insignificant.


That's a terrible metric to use.

Wikileaks would time their release of information for political effect.
