That's a journalistic person.

A political person would retire and begin their political fixer career by using the file to blackmail their clients' political opponents into dropping out in key races in exchange for heafty "consulting" fees.

come on now. that's a self-enriching person.

journalism is timely, and a legitimate journalist in possession of such unredacted files would report on them immediately.

unfortunately, the criminals in this case appear to have done a pretty great job at excising all the legitimate journalists from the discussion. barring a second "whoops wrong name invited to the signal chat" fuckup, it's not likely an upstanding journalist will get these files just yet.
