Glenn Greenwald is resigning from his own company because it became just another biased media outlet.

The attached article is long, and very scathing. And also worth the read.

If this tripe were true, then why did the editors demand that he also not engage in his contractual right to publish the article elsewhere?

isn't it funny that these emails, which apparently have no shred of credibility, caused the New York Post to be banned from twitter, along with the Whitehouse Press Secretary, and is causing issues like this.

Like i get it, the story looks shady as hell, but the overreaction legitimizes them 100x more in the eyes of the public than the Post printing them.

that and reporting on the post's reporting and censorship allegations isnt banned, so people still find the story. it did nothing to keep people from seeing it, what we would assume the goal of censorship is, it had the opposite effect.

I think its clear the left establishment is scared shitless of a Comey-Wiener-Laptop moment sinking Biden. but their constant worry has made them more jumpy than Tim kaine at the VP debate.

allow the post type articles, then put your efforts into debunking articles. if clouding the national conversation is your goal that is.

They wanted to edit his articles to include pro-Biden "context" while uncritically regurgitating "former CIA officials" while omitting the fact that those officials had no direct knowledge of anything that was going on.

But I forgive them, they were doing all of this for the greater good. I'm sure that they'll forget all about exercising power like this once Trump is safely in jail.

I thought the proposed edits were mostly right. The editor pointed out some important context that should've been added or amplified.

But instead of engaging in a healthy back and forth Glenn threw a tantrum, and went on to trash his colleagues. Good riddance.
