What could be more unbiased, more no-holds-barred, more downright truthy than a film directed by Linda Poitras and starring Glenn Greenwald - the two "dinsinterested" parties who have made Snowden into their personal cash cow?

If you like comedy, you'll LOVE "Citizen Four". It's full of intriguing dialogue, like "I'm being followed." "Really?" "Yes." "Oh."

Of course, there is never any follow-up actually proving - or even any facts that vaguely hint at proving - such cloak-and-dagger hijinks actually took place. But for the faithful, no actual facts are necessary. Just saying so on-screen is sufficient.

The fact that anyone would direct you to this film as being the "real story" behind Snowden's actions speaks for itself.

If they are still using the same Aerows Jun 2015 #86

His encription? Like they hacked into his computer to know who is hacking into his computer JonLP24 Jun 2015 #92
