When the person making the argument has a history of acting in bad faith, that's relevant to the argument.

    No one wakes up every day with a clean slate, having forgotten everyone who lied and cheated to them in the past. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice... Journalistic reporting depends on some degree of trust. I can't go verify everything I read – I don't have the time, means, or interest. No one does that. I feel that in the past Greenwald has demonstrated to be unreliable because he views the world too much through an ideological lens. Everyone does that with certain outlets and people.

      Every journalist nowadays has an ideological lens so who do you trust in the end ?

        That is not a good faith reading of what was said; the words "too much" have meaning. Good day.
