P. S. This “interview” GG did with Amanpour is such a pile. How did she reach this conclusion, for instance?
“Greenwald, formerly of The Guardian, has been systematically publishing reports of secret American intelligence gathering since he was given a treasure trove of leaks by former intelligence officer Edward Snowden.”
That is hype pushed by GG, nothing more, and she fell for it. He even gave Snowjob a promotion.
BTW, it was widely reported on 10/15 that GG was leaving The Guardian to form a “newspaper” financed by a billionaire dudebro. On 10/25, The Guardian is still publishing his bullshit with this: theguardian.com
This entire bullshit meme of “journalist” as applied to GG is just that—bullshit. He’s not a reporter, in the classic sense of the word, nor a columnist with an opinion, he’s an activist and a wannabee “journalist rock star” who has inserted himself thoroughly into this story.
Why would a legitimate reporter for a major outlet give this narcissistic loser and aider and abetter of a serious criminal enterprise—the theft of government documents—the time of day? If GG is anything at all, he’s a PR master of his own BS.
No wonder the public doesn’t trust the media very much. It’s one thing for a reporter to be lied to, it’s quite another for a reporter to lie or deliberately misrepresent the facts.
