WikiLeaks has exposed documents and videos detailing the corruption in Kenya, Guantanamo Bay procedures, and the American involvement in the Afghan and Iraq wars, portions of which were classified confidential and secret. The New York Times published some of this information. Although WikiLeaks did not actually “leak” classified material (some of it was passed to WikiLeaks by a low-level US Army intelligence analyst).
