Glenn Greenwald and Friends: Fearless Adversarial Fox News Contributors

Greenwald thinks they should.

Reading that chapter of his resignation novel, the sin of omission idea seems to be what he’s getting at. Which seems to be typical Greenwaldian thin-skinned, narcissistic overreaction. He does have a point that The Intercept never owned up to its mistakes on the Winner fiasco, and that allowed people like you guys who already hate Greenwald to use the Winner thing as a dumb gotcha against Greenwald.

Fwiw I never did that. It was a black mark on the outlet for sure though.

Shouldn’t they? If a paper screws up and lands a source in jail shouldn’t they cover that?

I just read Greenwald’s piece on the Hunter scandal.

He repeatedly refers to Bobulinski as “Bubolinski” so that’s fun, really on top of the details of this story. Aside from that it’s typical Glenn, ponderous, repetitive, boring and containing a dazzling array of false equivalencies. He repeats this idea that one shouldn’t care who the source of documents is, using Trump’s tax returns as an example, like that is in any way comparable to what is going on here.

You really think it’s impossible for someone to support neither Greenwald nor the Dem establisment?

lol Greenwald just published the email correspondence with The Intercept’s editors and it’s a Sam Harris level self-own. The editor is incredibly lucid about what the problems are with the story and how Greenwald is running with it and Greenwald just throws a tantrum.

Like that’s a really A+ explanation of why most media outlets are skeptical of the story.

The EIC doesn’t even say he can’t publish elsewhere, as he’d claimed.

GG is an amazing douchenozzle that is in a bubble of a bubble. Meaning he himself lives in a liberal bubble and thus thinks the liberal bubble’s perceived hypocrisy is the most pressing issue of our times.

So he is happy to work with Fox News, the NY Post, etc. to “right this wrong” even though his criticism of the “left wing media” would apply 100 fold to them, they were the instigators in marching us into the Iraq War, they are currently actively destroying our planet through their lies, etc., etc.

If pressed as to why his criticisms of his liberal colleagues don’t apply to Fox News 100x, he would say of course they do, “but everybody knows that so no point in me addressing that!”

But of course, not everybody does knows that, 70mm+ people plus are voting Trump for FFS!!! Just the people in HIS liberal bubble know that. Those people he cites calling the NY Times, etc. “Fake News!” do not also believe that Fox News is Fake News. Someone needs to educate them on that, its massively important…but Glenn is not the one up for the job. Why?

As SK has recently given the game away many that he is a nihilistic Joker wannabe that gets enjoyment from seeing the world burn, GG gives the game away when he mocks the Intercept for their apparently low clicks. Another liberal jackass calling out Fox News for being a threat to humanity… BOOOORRRRRRRRIIIIIIINNNGGGG!

That same jackass calling out the NY Times for comparitively trivial perceived transgressions… now that get clicks baby!

Tucker isn’t on for 20 more minutes, will monitor and keep thread appraised of any Greenwald appearances. I’m sure dad found this out from Fox, I got him watching Krystal and Saager as a better non establishment alternative to fox but this broke after their show today.
