Manning and Assange must eat the stick so the rest of the people learn not to mess with the Authority. Must make sure that no journalist dares to even touch any future leak. Dare I remind that Greenwald has a capture order in Brasil.

Really? I thought the whole idea of free "free" was that people do mess with the Authority to keep it in check.

That is the idea. They're saying that, in practice, the Authority is anti-freedom, and freedom is the enemy.
