I'll huff and I'll puff

Known peter-puffer and now confirmed traitor Bradley Manning has pled guilty to 10 lesser charges of stealing and leaking classified information from the government.  Which is great. 

But another article states that he initially approached at least two major news outlets, including the New York Times, with his stolen documents.  Why in the fuck no one at either of these organizations didn't pick up the phone and alert the authorities is anyone's best guess, but it makes me wonder who the real enemies if the United States are?

Thanks assholes.
