Wikileaks don't need to generate publicity for stuff they leak. If it benefits left-wing talking points HuffPo will sensationalize it; if it benefits right-wing talking points Drudge will. There's no shortage of hype and sensationalization--Wikileaks don't need to generate it themselves unless they want to self-aggrandize.

I think the reason they do it is that the message will be spread further if they self-aggrandize.
