What are the odds that Wikileaks will publish the Burisma-files?

[DetlefK]

What are the odds that whatever the russian hackers found in Burisma's server will be published by Wikileaks?

Only for Wikileaks to turn around and declare that it is preposterous to presume that they would agree to do the dirty work of an intelligence service?

1. I'm going with slim to none...

Russian agents don't publish data that incriminates Russia.

2. I saw the other day where they are still up and running, so

maybe.
Although, it would be beyond stupid.

3. russia doesn't need wikileaks any more...

Fox will publish it, the senate will hold hearings on it, and house republicans will release it.

5. No they won't

The question, from the context of the story, seems to be sarcastic. The Burisma stoy is about Russian hacking into the oil company maliciously. It would likely show Russians as bad actors in Ukraine, which would reinforce the narrative that the Obama administration and Joe Biden were right in trying to curtail corruption in Ukraine.

It is not something that Russia would want released. I may be wrong, but the OP likely is thinking that the odds are very slim that Wikileaks, which is supposedly a watchdog that releases information on governments wrongdoing, would release information damaging to Russia because they are a stooge organization that was helping Russia to leak information damaging to liberal entities.

6. don't forget...

who chooses what gets released. Nothing that russia doesn't want released will see the light of day. What will get released will be emails that make obama/bidens look bad.

7. If they had anything it would already have been released.

The find was of Russian hacking.

There is no there there.

9. why?

timing is everything. they held the dnc emails until just the right time....

4. What are the odds, that whatever they publish...

...won't be a fabrication?

They can make up any story they wish.

8. What are the odds any of it would be true?

10. The question is not whether it would be true. The question is whether it would be believed.
