Edward Snowden did not just release info we already knew. Many suspected what he proved, but that's different though, isn't it? I await the next shoe falling, and believe that the last folks we should believe are the "intelligence" folks from our own USA government and the Brits. Thanks for posting, excellent.

But these people fail to realize that this country's lazy consumer units have the attention span of a west nile mosquito. Being reminded on a weekly basis is a bane to propaganda outlets who hate that Greenwald has the ultimate power in carefully doling out this information. Slow burn.

IMO, Glenn is still alive because it would be too obvious (at this moment) to suicide or accident him.

I believe that he has been the topic of many governmental assassination discussions

That is possibly the reason he has been so vehemently discussed by the media and government, it would make a
plausible "lone nut" assassination theory easily believed by the media controlled public.

It is killing the Plutocrats that they have lost control of the message. Whatever your feelings are about Greenwald or Snowden, you need to look at the documents themselves and how they are spoken about. No one is saying that they are not legitimate documents. They are however, trying to spin what they mean and distract us with personal attacks on the two.
Keep it up Glenn, continue speaking truth to power, I for one appreciate you!

I don't usually subscribe that definition to a person, but he's an extraordinary example.
I loved his willingness to 'unplug' if the interviewer persisted in yelling over him. Very cool and not like most media whores. Get em, Glenn!
