      1. The Intercept has a blockbuster report on the CIA running death squads in Afghanistan & its not getting much attention. Worth asking why. https://theintercept.com/2020/12/18/afghanistan-cia-militia-01-strike-force/ …

          They have. But they’ve also gone a long way to tarnish their own reputation. I followed for a while. Maybe I should try again now that Greenwald is gone.

          If you don’t apply this standard to every mainstream outlet from The NY Times on down, I’m calling foul.

          There's a connection between the fact that the publication willing to publish about CIA death squads is also widely smeared. And I don't think it is one big tightly organized top down conspiracy, but a far more diffuse set of personal career incentives.

          People who leaked to the NYT, NBC have also been jailed. But only The Intercept is the problem? Lol.
