Just knocked off and skimmed a bundle of threads accusing some here of being "personas" - presumably paid agents, perhaps bots... maybe alien lizards? I've never encountered one - at least insofar as I can determine - so I'm not sure how to spot one.

I just thought that, as Greenwald relies on "citizen contributions" to augment his meager income as a Guardian editorialist, perhaps he kicks back some of those funds for a bit of self-promotion. It is, of course, consistent with his "journalistic" ethos... pay to play, as it were.

So I just asked. Nothing personal, mind you, just trying to grok the means by which we uncover the subterfuge running rampant here. If it isn't professional promotion, I'll just have to scratch that off my list. 'Sokay, I'll figure it out.

Glenn Greenwald follows me on Twitter. I don't follow him. msanthrope Jul 2013 #296

More whining from an anonymous blogger. Seems to be jealous of Greenwalds work but sabrina 1 Jul 2013 #161

Doesn't everything and the Sun revolve around Greenwad? Whisp Jul 2013 #166

Yes, for some people the world does seem to revolve around Greenwald. sabrina 1 Jul 2013 #171

You are focusing on 'writing skills' Whisp Jul 2013 #174

GG's problem is that all six are verifiably true in so far as they're things based on his own words. Chan790 Jul 2013 #156
