(20,176 posts)The enemy (David Gregory) of my enemy (Glenn Greenwald) is not necessarily my friend.
It doesn't change my opinion of either of them: Gregory is still a RW toadie masquerading as a real journalist and Greenwald is still shrill nowhere-near-objective propagandist who only reports what reinforces his agenda even if he has to be dishonest or engage in unethical practices to do it. Neither one of them is a real journalist any more than Julian Assange is. I'd sooner expect a fart than the truth from any of them. Let's toss all of the "journalists" and talking heads on TV and in newsprint onto that bonfire.
A pox on all their houses.
It's easy to revile the cancerous plague within modern journalism when you believe the media has no integrity and feels no obligation to the truth or to reporting the news. To paraphrase a great quote about atheism: "I contend that we are both media skeptics. I just believe in fewer journalists than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all other journalists, you will understand why I dismiss yours."
