1. Is it true that Wikileaks refused to publish the Panama papers?

Because they implicated Putin and other Russian oligarchs?

ETA: Not only that, Wikileaks claims the Panama Papers were a US plot to embarrass Putin. http://www.truthdig.com/eartotheground/item/wikileaks_claims_the_us_government_funded_the_panama_papers_20160408

Elected officials and rich people from all around the world were implicated in those papers in stashing their money offshore. But Wikileaks was not only not interested in releasing the story, they worked to to discredit it.

@JoyAnnReid You are pushing a discredited conspiracy theory. There is no affinity, whatsoever. Our lawyers will monitor your program.
