Last I checked, the NYT doesn't have clearances. So obviously somebody with access is providing them to the NYT. That person is the one that bears the responsibility for the release. The NYT signed no oath and has no obligation to determine what is classified or not. That is what the government does.
As I am sure you know Joe, not everything in a classified document is classified or sensitive. Only particular facts and the sources of them. There is no justification to classify something just because it is potentially embarrassing not politically advantageous. This is one more in a string of comments that attacks the messenger.
The paper published the information, but the release was by the person who gave the document to the NYT in the first place.
