The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has released an analysis of the freedom of the press with regards to publishing the Wikileaks information.  While I'm appreciative of their analysis, I remain unconvinced that it will make anyone less fearful, including me.  I've included the analysis below, as their work is all licensed under the Creative Commons; however, I still recommend readers peruse their website.

Information is the Antidote to Fear: Wikileaks, the Law, and You

When it comes to Wikileaks, there's a lot of fear out there on the Internet right now.

Between the federal criminal investigation into Wikileaks, Senator Joe Lieberman's calls for companies to stop providing support for Wikileaks and his suggestion that the New York Times itself should be criminally investigated, Senator Dianne Feinstein's recent Wall Street Journal op-ed calling for prosecution of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, and even the suggestion by some that he should be assassinated, a lot of people are scared and confused.
