The media spin of the neo-"conservative" corporate interests against Wikileaks is in full swing . A Russian correspondent of a Swiss daily newspaper, not really a rag claims that "one has all already know, nothing new" - while he agrees with a Russia expert from a German think tank, and the rhetoric the Cold War evokes, and dreams of the simple bipolar past.
line would have the opposite attitude you expect from a NZZ journalists, but this now seems to insinuate the "neoconservative" Spillmann-guard, with Hummler in VR, which will only appear theses journalism and complacency articles, and do not allow facts the narrow world view would distort.
With such people on board may be no more world sheet, but the newspaper as a sales brochure for a one-sided view of the world. Here are the files of Wikileaks quite disruptive and Blaber not narrow-minded as any Feuilleuton journalists "already known" ... "Have it all already know" ect. This attitude is itself known in sogennant "left-liberal circles, even the progressive Woz wallows in the self-pity not to belong to the trust of media Wikileaks may and locates Media Business as usual ... How can it be that any personal feelings lead to premature excitement research self-censorship? Recherche-censorship: there is not even so it follows that an already-written article does not appear, but that journalists want to research a controversial topic even less time. Dear somehow a column is expressed in the heroic skepticism Wikilieaks ... This interested the audience something else: the hard facts: An interesting story is this one:
Cables Reveal Background of Pro-Dictator U.S. Policy
After the Soviet collapse in 1991 U.S. policy toward Central Asia was transparently cynical: support the dictators, screw the people. 
As the U.S. stood by and watched, corrupt autocrats looted the former Soviet republics of Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Tajikistan. Dissidents were jailed, massacred--even boiled. Well, actually, the U.S. was anything but passive. They negotiated deals for oil and gas pipelines. They rented airbases after 9/11. They poured in tens of millions of American tax dollars--all of which wound up in secret bank accounts belonging to the dictators and their families. Meanwhile, average citizens lived in abject poverty.
