Or should they be held up to a standard that would keep the country from being bashed or attacked just for the ability to sell a newspaper or get a few more hits on a web page

Should posting or printing illegally obtained and top secret documents no matter the redactions be a crime?
It is illegal to steal them, but it is not illegal to post them after wards

The NYT is printing much of the wiki leaks information

This is not a right or left thing, I think Rush or drudge should be silent on the leaks as USA Today or NPR
