You mean the people who think this means Greenwald lied about what he did, when there is no evidence he did?

I really would like to know. If I'm missing something, show it to me. I knew Greenwald said he had communication with Snowden in February. I saw the tweet when he first tweeted it. And hadn't forgotten it. I know he is saying he didn't know his name until Hong Kong. What am I missing. No, it's not obfuscation, so, wrong on that, too, apparently. Not that there's not a lot of obfuscation going on.

No, and ProSense Jun 2013 #60

You mean the people who say GG deleted a tweet he didn't delete? Hissyspit Jun 2013 #62

Why are you asking me to explain other people's comments? ProSense Jun 2013 #65

I didn't. You said people were understanding Hissyspit Jun 2013 #70

Right, but how does that make me responsible for other people's comments? n/t ProSense Jun 2013 #71

Then why did you laugh at LA's post? Hissyspit Jun 2013 #73

What's the problem? Major Hogwash Jun 2013 #67

Do you really believe that Snowden didn't reveal that he was an NSA subcontractor? grantcart Jun 2013 #79

As a journalist, why would he want to publish anything based on treestar Jun 2013 #86

Could he not know where he worked and still know he was an NSA subcontractor? Hassin Bin Sober Jun 2013 #90

He had to know something concrete. He didn't make all those preparations based on nothing. n/t ProSense Jun 2013 #93

Or not. Hissyspit Jun 2013 #96

The point is if he didn't know its because he purposefully kept it ambiguous while he was getting grantcart Jun 2013 #99

Prosense, they are calling you intellectually dishonest on another thread. Th1onein Jun 2013 #78
