Wikileaks is simply wrong when they say that this was an instance of 
"censoring articles critical of Wikipedia".  Of course, Wikinews is 
supposed to be NPOV, but within that framework there is absolutely no 
prohibition about producing factual articles that would tend to show the 
Wikimedia Foundation in a negative light.
