whatever that link is ain't working on my end

greenwald claiming in the replies of that tweet that it was actually "satire"... okay, buddy.

I was more talking about Greenwald's anti-anti-anti-Bidenist tweet insisting that no actually we SHOULD be grilling Joe B. on his sinister court-packing scheme, why is the press going so easy on him

But that one was bad too

is that one a joke too

glenn greenwald: comedian

but doctor -- i am glenn greenwald

the tweets of a clown

him and fellow comedy genius scott adams should drop a collab, maybe he could co-write some new dilford comics or something

Blind pig, acorn...

If it’s really true that the US Marshals purposely avoided arresting this US citizen on US soil, and chose to shoot and kill him instead without provocation, then everyone involved and responsible should be prosecuted. https://t.co/VYMrBDFN1K

I'm proud he resigned with his characteristic accountability, lack of self-pity, and insistence on the high road.

My Resignation From The Intercept

The same trends of repression, censorship and ideological homogeneity plaguing the national press generally have engulfed the media outlet I co-founded, culminating in censorship of my own articles.https://t.co/dZrlYGfEBf

I am EXTREMELY annoyed that isn't "My Resignation from the Internet."

"My Resignation from not having a lucrative Substack Newsletter"

let my man cook

The censored article, based on recently revealed emails and witness testimony, raised critical questions about Biden’s conduct.

Oh boy, cant wait

Imagine the Hunter Biden story is the hill you choose to die on.

They should have let him publish his crybaby article and responded with a rebuttal article consisting of: "Even if this were true, no one cares, Glenn."

lol this guy

zing

Intercept EIC Betsy Reed sent me this statement regarding the departure of @ggreenwald, saying there's a "fundamental disagreement over the role of editors in the production of journalism and the nature of censorship." pic.twitter.com/Od2TTKLsyq

cot damn

Savage and well deserved.

I could see him just going full Fox News, as in with his own show there, by the end of the year.

hear me out, a podcast where glenn greenwald & mollie hemingway scream a list of enemies at each other for 90 straight minutes

Lee Fang is 100% team-Greenwald which seems weird, but Lee has had a pretty rough year so I'm not sure where his head his at.

Saw something like this coming as soon as the Intercept started publishing pieces that occasionally criticized Republicans rather than exclusively Democrats. Glenn must have hated that

What's new in Lee Fang world? He blocked me a couple years ago, so I honestly have no idea.

RIP Morbs

"where he will face no collaboration with editors" is a great line

Anyone trying to reach me: my previous email has been terminated.

looooqol

Marcy Wheeler tears Greenwald's story (which he's now posted online, because of course he fucking has) into thin strips and beats him with them...

A long Twitter thread starts here. She picks out four false statements in the story's first paragraph, and keeps going.

Great news: Glenn's going to hack himself!

This is not going to work out like he wants, I'm pretty sure. pic.twitter.com/MtTYehW89T

— emptywheel (@emptywheel) October 29, 2020

does he still have a fanbase?

I could see him just going full Fox News, as in with his own show there, by the end of the year

He's going to team up with Taibbi.

Oh, and just FTR:

Months before the NY Post story, a document passed around far-right websites detailed a vast Hunter Biden conspiracy.

The document's creator, Martin Aspen, claimed to be a Swiss intel professional.

But Aspen's face was created by AI. He doesn't exist.https://t.co/oA4aKTjkUp pic.twitter.com/U1MNqh8WmW

expect it of sullivan and weiss, but i feel like a guy with a law degree should maybe understand that a 'refusal to print absolutely everything i write' does not equal 'censorship'

jfc

Just on a writing level, how do submit a lede like this? pic.twitter.com/Y1p5qhJUUr

he put up the emails between him and editors and it makes him look insane and/or like a giant baby https://greenwald.substack.com/p/emails-with-intercept-editors-showing

Response of Betsy Reed yesterday

Our intention in sending the memo was for you to revise the story for publication. However, it's clear from your response this morning that you are unwilling to engage in a productive editorial process on this article, as we had hoped.

It would be unfortunate and detrimental to The Intercept for this story to be published elsewhere.

I have to add that your comments about The Intercept and your colleagues are offensive and unacceptable.

Betsy

why are you censoring meeeeeee

You'll never guess what the top story is on Tucker Carlson's show tonight. pic.twitter.com/0QkMwa7ws2

dude should just go all the way and change his name to "(emphasis added) iGlenn Greenwald". Has anyone else in history loved adding emphasis more?
