A real pity because the intercept might be saying something important buried in the over/under emphasis, hyperbole and unnecessarily agitating tone. But it's hard to tell and harder to take seriously.
I hope they think about tweaking their editorial standards.
- hackuser 10y agoI agree. The Intercept's independence and courage is great, a valuable asset to the world. But those qualities are useless unless I can trust them.

Greenwald Tweeted not long after the WaPo article came out that the article was "journalistic garbage, and people were passing out around uncritically because it served political agendas." An emotional response from Greenwald. Greenwald is an absolute godsend in today's world of 1984, but he is not perfect and his writing style can and has been much better than this.
