Definitely not. He started on a blogspot site, Unclaimed Territory and argued about free speech and got into fights with Andrew Sullivan. This is well before he got married and moved to Brazil, started the Intercept. He has not always been like this. I stopped reading him before the Intercept. The old Glenn Greenwald would have never have written this article.
- disgruntledphd2 6y agoReally? I started reading him when he was on Salon back in the Bush years (remember when Democrats believed Dominion had hacked the voting machines?) and he's been super consistent in his views, at least from my perspective. Someone like Greenwald will always end up in trouble, because he appears to have principles that don't match neatly to either Team A or B, with the result that everyone ends up hating him.
- tootie 6y agoI read some of his stuff back then and remember thinking that was being an illogical contrarian. He didn't break much news at all but rather layered lots of opinions that I didn't think we're well supported by facts.
