In reply to the discussion: Twitter feud between Joy Reid and Glenn Greenwald, challenge issed to Greenwald [View all]Hissyspit
(45,790 posts)when you continue to make a claim and do absolutely nothing to back it up, despite repeated requests. And what does the rest of the baseless nonsense you wrote have to do with anything?
Please provide a link or any argument to prove that there is no inaccuracy, misrepresentation, deliberate or honestly confused, in most of the OP.
SOMEONE ELSE called her an Obama operative on Twitter in the conversation the OP is referencing, but the OP left it implied that Greenwald did. Reid asked her question of Greenwald, about him supposedly not responding to questions about Snowden getting the Booz Allen job, and he responded with links to interviews showing he clearly did, in answer to her question. Her implication that Greenwald had not addressed the issue was false. That's all. There was no more Twitter conversation involving Greenwald as the OP implied.
Then, she referenced being called an 'Obama operative,' which apparently comes from this earlier Twitter conversation where Greenwald does NOT call her an Obama operative, but, rather, makes an argument about automatic assumption of validity of journalists:

...and then someone else in the later Twitter thread called her that, repeating HER words.
(He may have called her an 'Obama operative' somewhere else, but I can't find any evidence of it. Those seem to be HER words. If you can find an incident where he did, please post it.)
I actually like Joy Reid, but I don't make up baseless slander to try and destroy her just because she says something I don't like and I want to believe something bad about her automatically whether it is true or not.
