Didn't they release the Pentagon Papers in a way that might have hurt them with the government a while back? It's sad how they've changed.

That was a psyop.

Daniel Ellsberg seems like a progressive but he's a conservative CIA agent/asset.

Read "CIA As Organized Crime" by Douglas Valentine to get the real low down on the real low down.

This is not a new practice. It's wise to avoid publishing any national security information that may have been learned during an investigation.
