- eachro 6y agoYup. He could have removed the entire sentence about Parler and the tweet would retain most of its meaning.
- mhh__ 6y agoThat describes a lot of what he gets up to these days. There's a reason why The Intercepts article on him leaving is as close as you can politely get to physically disowning him and his work.
- danudey 6y agoI hadn't read that article, so I googled it, and assuming this[0] is the correct one, wow. Some choice excerpts, which are even better in context so read the article: > The narrative Glenn presents about his departure is teeming with distortions and inaccuracies — all of them designed to make him appear as a victim, rather than a grown person throwing a tantrum. > it was he who was attempting to recycle the dubious claims of a political campaign — the Trump campaign — and launder them as journalism. > We have the greatest respect for the journalist Glenn Greenwald used to be > We have no doubt that Glenn will go on to launch a new media venture where he will face no collaboration with editors — such is the era of Substack and Patreon. In that context, it makes good business sense for Glenn to position himself as the last true guardian of investigative journalism and to smear his longtime colleagues and friends as partisan hacks.
