1. For non-Twitters, here's the image of the statement:

6. Ouch! A subtle dig at Mr. Greenwald...he doesn't really help his case, eh, by unsubstantiated

attacks. My humble opinion is that those in the know will read these words by the editors of The Intercept written about Mr. Greenwald, and thus question any relationship that they may initiate w/ Mr. Greenwald, or at the very least, be very cautious in any dealings w/ such a person.

2. Glenn is a fucking asshole.I don't read the Intercept, so I don't care, but I

follow him, Matt Taibbi and few others on Twitter to keep tabs on their agenda.

Any time I call them out, I get replies from trumpers.

Yes, trumpers LOVE them. Why? Because both spent the last 4 years dismissing anything about trump and going further to mock those in media who bring it up (or Democrats), and then now, with no irony, or scrutiny, treat the Rudy pushed story.

Seriously, fuck them

3. The Intercept just became a significantly better publication ... addition by subtraction you might

say.

I actually find it to be pretty decent publication, aside from the jokers like Greenwald and (much to my chagrin given his work at RS) Taibbi.

I don't seek to only read things that take the side of the story that I prefer, I like unvarnished facts and knowledge. There's definitely been cases where I got that from the Intercept.

For the same basic reason I'm pretty much neutral on Michael Moore and Bill Maher.

Flame away

8. I love a consensus ...

9. I used to like Greenwald, so I dislike disliking him now. But, he never seems to be on my side.

I think his previous journalistic successes went to his head.

11. I think he's calculated he gets more attention doing what he's doing now, makes him stand out more

Becoming all about the money and fame is what I'd guess.

4. must be quite the slippery slope...

Life is one long line of conspiracies.

5. I'm sure Breitbart or Fox News will publish his "journalism" unedited. nt

10. Him, Jacob Wohl, and David Daleiden can start up their own outlet now (nt)
