Right wing =/= evil. The description doesn’t point what exactly these organizations done.
Left wing organizations do exactly the same, preaching left wing values in cooperation.
So what’s the deal here?
The deal is that they’ve got this data about a network of right-wing campaigning organizations, and so they’re publishing it.
Go ahead and gather 17,000 documents from left-wing campaigning organizations, you can publish those too.
Yes, and in case you’re not a media organization you could just leak the documents to them :-)
The deal here simply is that they released documents about right-wing organizations for all others to see and investigate.
And, yes, left wingers and a lot of others do exactly the same thing.
