Traditionally an editor would be obligated to review the material and redact info that could be harmful to others. The publisher has distinct liability independent of govt opinion.

> and redact info that could be harmful to others.

of course, these concerns are only applicable when these "others" are Americans and the American institutions.

Everybody else can just fend for themselves.

Whats good for the goose, should be good for the gander. If American journalists feel like there is no problem with disclosing secrets of, say, Maduro, then they should not be protecting people like Trump (just as an example).
