> Wikileaks release of documents and their opinion journalism during elections as giving an unfair advantage to Trump.

This is a fact

As it is a fact that WL "leaked" documents relating to Fillon (before his candidature sank - though not because of WL) in France

So, no, he's not a "neutral party" (though he has an entirely understandable beef with HRC)

For goodness sake. Wikileaks do not leak. Ever. They are publishers. The verb is publish.

The Fillon leaks were not from Wikileaks as far as I know.

Wikileaks Twitter shows that they linked to a search result for "Fillon" in their old releases, which they often do for current topics.

But what really did him in (I think) were the Canard Enchainé revelations

That article says exactly what I said :)

They linked to search results - in fact for multiple (opposing) candidates - from their old leaks.

Ah I agree :) But it had some impact at the time
