Glenn Greenwald on fake news

100% agreed

You're an adult now. Everything you read in the media is redolent with opinion judgement. In the nyt, wsj, the post. This article does you the service of making the authors judgement obvious and providing the sources so you can form your own informed opinion - disagree by all means.

Is there somewhere else you can find out the facts about how the post hypes false stories and buries their reaction? Note that Putin, whether he is evil incarnate or not is the current bogeyman for military funding. So you can see why media coverage of the "putin threat" might be important. WMD coverage isn't a long time ago. Do presidential candidates still sing "bomb iran" to a beach boys melody?

Doesnt seem like it. His credibility and views are going up like crazy with non establishment democrats and republicans.

If I had to guess, Id say we are still in the process of a new alignment.

That's your opinion. My opinion is that Greenwald is one of the most important journalists alive today. It feels like there is mass disillusionment with institutions of all kinds, from both conservatives and liberals, and especially among millennials. The more people learn to think critically and independently for themselves, the better off the world will be.

> His view count and credibility slip by the day regardless of whether he's right or not, partially as a result of his focus
