It also mentions the possibility of people losing jobs for researching the subject. COME ON! Its only the top news story out there right now. If you ask me that is just ridiculous, what has the world come to? Here is the link to the story... www.cnn.com...edit on 8-12-2010 by luchini33334 because: (no reason given)

I don't think it'll matter. Because anyone who wants to get a job working with the security/intelligence services won't after they've read those documents.
It cancels itself out.
Most of those who want to work in such a field (and I did want to once) would aspire to defend their country. They view their country/leadership/government through rose tinted glasses. After reading these documents all those naive beliefs should be gone, and with it any respect for the security/intelligence services.
However the media tries to spin it, THIS IS ALL THEIR FAULT (and by their I mean the government). They broke laws, they were corrupt, they used unethical and immoral methods, they lied they stole the cheated and they did just about everything they felt they could get away with.
And instead of being sorry, they demand that it is their right and that the very fact that others now know their secrets is somehow wrong. The people are not wrong for wanting to know. WL is not wrong for leaking it. THE GOVERNMENT IS WRONG FOR DOING ALL OF THIS TO BEGIN WITH!

I just noticed the story went "official." Seriously, everyone is reading about wikileaks, so I doubt they will be able to hire anyone in the future, literally.
