41. Other: I didn't know when it was on, and I missed it. And NBC won't let me see the damn thing

They won't rerun it, their website is terribly fucked, (But here you go), they won't let anyone air the whole thing online without taking it down, only in 3-minute soundbites, and they plan to take it down themselves at the end of this week. And I'm not someone who torrents stuff, so... and I can't ask friends for a copy because they don't watch TV. I generally wish I could save a copy of news or news clips since if it is coming from an advertising-supported outlet you know you will never see it again. Which means they don't really want to keep the public informed, only entertained for ratings sake. Anyone know a link to the whole thing?

Let me know if anyone can get through the links on that splash page. It at least looks nice even though it is built like an adfarm site.

Poll: Did you watch all of the NBC Snowden interview? What did you think? [View all] JDPriestly May 2014 OP

I don't hate Snowden, or even dislike him, ZombieHorde May 2014 #1

You're not alone. Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #2

I guess you can take a day off, then. grasswire May 2014 #4

I guess we can both "take a day off". Have you left this place since Wednesday night? Grab a cup.. Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #7

well, I don't get paid for posting. grasswire May 2014 #9

Any "tangible evidence" of "won the day"? Or is this that whole twitter thingie again? Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #12

You are awesome grasswire Vattel May 2014 #30

It's sad. Meanwhile, the NSA may have more accurate counts on the numbers of viewers JDPriestly May 2014 #5

I don't know that it's sad. People made up their minds about this guy some time ago. It hasn't.... Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #11

The global surveillance practices are related to commercial espionage -- a serious no, no. JDPriestly May 2014 #14

If what you say is true, who stood to benefit from the disclosure? Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #22

Perhaps our corporations. JDPriestly May 2014 #25

Did you watch the show, Tarheel Dem? JDPriestly May 2014 #16

I did NOT! Can't bear to listen to either one of 'em. Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #21

You might be surprised by Snowden. In fact, I think you would be. JDPriestly May 2014 #24

This didn't help what I already suspected..... Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #34

Did you watch the program? JDPriestly May 2014 #6

No. I didn't watch it. ZombieHorde May 2014 #19

I watched it and was pleasantly surprised. JDPriestly May 2014 #26

Didn't you find all of his answers Curmudgeoness May 2014 #29

He may be a bit Obsessive Compulsive and may think and think and ruminate and think JDPriestly May 2014 #33

He should keep talking. I hope the network airs it again. n/t Jefferson23 May 2014 #3

Yes. I was favorably impressed. Very conscientious. Not as naive as I expected. JDPriestly May 2014 #8

I think that Brian Williams was impressed, too. grasswire May 2014 #10

I thought so today. Snowden was not what he expected -- far more circumspect and modest, JDPriestly May 2014 #17

I am appreciative of what he has done. McCarthy era/Watergate was chump change by comparison. Jefferson23 May 2014 #23

he comes across as more credible and less of an axe-grinder carolinayellowdog May 2014 #13

Yes. It was interesting. JDPriestly May 2014 #18

Snowden is just trying to keep us from becoming North Korea. We're headed that way. nt valerief May 2014 #27

So true. Everythin is just hunky dory wonderful, and our dear leader is the best ever, ever. JDPriestly May 2014 #32

Japan is still dealing with the North Korea abduction issue betsuni Jun 2014 #44

Coltrane is awesome. SummerSnow Jun 2014 #45
