      Jeet Heer Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

      One of the saddest developments of 2020 is to see Greenwald -- a great reporter who has done fantastic work -- go full Tracey-brain.https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1325063675531710464 …

      How the media shifted so abruptly from "anyone going to a spacious beach is a super-spreading monster killing Grandma" to "these mass, densely populated protests with people screaming on top of each other are so inspiring" was one of 2020's most credibility-destroying media acts: https://twitter.com/ChuckRossDC/status/1324913881265950720 …

      He was never a reporter, much less a great one. The Snowden stuff was thrown in his lap.

      His work on Brazil is very important. Liberals ignore it because they are narrowly focused on Trump.

          What's that apocryphal Palmerston quote about expats?

          True. But it contradicts his treatment of Trump in crazy ways. He’s become so 🤷🏻‍♀️

          It really boggles the mind. He must have a severe personality disorder.

          lol he got the credit because he was the famous guy, while others did the hard reporting. Let’s see if he’s credited with any such scoops now that he is no longer the figurehead of the intercept.

          Like, I'm assuming he's mostly just popularizing stuff Lusophone journalists are doing?

          I think GG has taken a bad turn, but I don't think this particular critique is that outlandish. A lot of the mixed messaging from the media on gatherings is likely responsible for people taking lockdowns less seriously.

          Very important, as assessed by a guy who believes himself very important.

          I’m from Brazil and I can say without a doubt his work has shaken Brazilian politics to its core. You can also google Glenn, Brasil and Lavajato(operation car wash) and stop being ignorant... just a thought.
