Read this. What a brilliant man. What a shame what American journalism has become.

"Journalists" are now nothing but gossip columnists.

Oh he’s leaving his $500,000 a year job at Ryan Grim’s website because its too friendly to establishment democrats is he? Hopefully he’ll be ok at his Brazilian chateau.

What a whiny little narcissist Glen is. Still not shocked you found him guitareander.

Again, we're talking about a ratfucking op so baseless that reporters at a Rupert Murdoch tabloid won't touch it and Tucker Carlson had to pretend that a dog ate his homework. Glenn doesn't understand that his editors were trying to save him from himself. Good riddance to trash.

I read the article, just to give it a chance.

Glen Greenwald is a clown. Most glaringly, he refused to actually state what specific element of the story about Biden was being censored. He makes it seem that all criticism of Biden was banned by the outlet - pardon me if I'm skeptical.

You don't have free reign to publish your wacky unproven allegations wherever you want. The journalists at The Intercept can cover what they want. Greenwald isn't silenced. He still has the reach of whatever website he'll write for next. The Intercept had every right to do what they did.

It's called basic journalistic integrity, by the way.

Absolutely hilarious that the position of the right is now "let us publish our unproven allegations on your platform, and then when they inevitably turn out to be false or misleading, just publish another article retracting it or arguing a different viewpoint."

Kinda crazy, by the way, that the people who claim to be on the left and "hate both sides" spend 99% of their time attacking the Democratic Party.

Surely it's a coincidence that the audience is notably right wing. Monetary incentive, baby. Clearly, there's an audience for people who want to feel like they're better than both sides.

Yup, and also decry modern journalism as gossip columnists for....having journalistic standards and not acting like gossip columnists.

The standards for printing news is censorship!

That's why it's kind of crazy that Glen refuses to state the actual claim that got "censored". If I truly believed that my journalistic work was being silenced by the left, I would probably be very specific about my claims, not just say that "they were making it illegal to criticize Biden" or whatever.

Maybe the people who are in the middle realize what freakin' nut jobs are now in the Dem. Party.
Nah, you're right, and they are all wrong. That makes a lot more sense - in your delusional World.
