My point is that, had the hacker sent this to a real news agency rather than TC, they would have published docs too.
And my point is, I'm not so sure you're right. Unless there's actually something newsworthy contained in the documents, I think only the sleaziest news outlets would publish any details at all beyond perhaps the fact that there had been a break-in.
You're correct, not every news outlet would publish them. But I believe more would than wouldn't. Especially in these times of dwindling cash flow, the desire to bring eyes in will bend even the resolute.
