Don't forget Judy was one of the lead cheerleaders on our run up to the invasion/occupation of Iraq channeling Chalabi for the powers that be who wanted that invasion so she had a little built in leverage and implicit permission for her revelations in that they served the purposes of the power structure mainly the neocons who wanted that war so I doubt there was much inclination in our government at that time to isolate her and prosecute her for her actions. Wikileak's revelations on the other hand embarrassed not only our government and power structure but those of some of our nominal allies in our imperial endeavors so Assange as the face of Wikileaks needs to be cut out and brought to heel.
