>Wikileaks' stated journalistic method has always been to provide editorialized/pre-digested material along with complete unedited sources.

That's not a "journalistic method". I don't know that I have a name for it, but it's not journalism. I said "put out the 39 minute version as is". If I wasn't clear, that means there should have been no need for an editorialized version at all.

Journalists don't expect that most people are willing to watch several 40 minute long pieces of unedited material in the evening news. That's why you will usually see editing. It is great that Wikileaks also released the unedited material for those that are interested.
