is a suggestion (and a perfectly fine way to start a discussion).
Greenwald might have good reason to believe there's more to it than that based on a perceived history of political bias. But, based solely on the text of the email I'm inclined to give the editor the benefit of the doubt.
As a matter of fact, I was firmly in Greenwalds' camp before reading the email exchange. It does read like a bit of tantrum IMHO. It certainly doesn't scream "censorship".
I concede, said "tantrum" may actually be justified based on history that we aren't privy to, but the raw text of the exchange alone does not paint Mr Greenwald in the best light.
