1. The most important thing is that nobody is saying the WikiLeaks aren't true

For all fluster and buster nobody is trying to say what the WikiLeaks brought up is not the truth.

Hammer meet nail ....... Good job Frank Rich!

2. The wicked false narrative.

"What Ellsberg’s leak did do was ratify the downward trend-line of the war’s narrative. The WikiLeaks legacy may echo that." -FR

3. disapproved of how Vietnam was handled by Nixon, who had arrived in office promising to end the war.

"By the time the Pentagon Papers surfaced, a plurality also disapproved of how Vietnam was handled by Nixon, who had arrived in office promising to end the war."

Parallels.
