The Washington Post conflates Snowden/Greenwald and Manning/Wikileaks, and elides entirely the Collateral Murder video. Essentially saying "Nothing new here". Everybody already knew the US was spying on them.
I'm not so sure people already understood the brutal incompetent idiocy of US military practice in Iraq and Afghanistan. Nor that they yet do. Manning's release was a little heavier than "Hey, world, the NSA's reading your email."
