      1. For anyone who has ever admired Greenwald's reporting and analysis, this turn towards becoming a Tucker Carlson apologist is sad. Greenwald's position is that the guy who called Iraqis “semiliterate primitive monkeys” has never framed any issue in "racist terms."https://twitter.com/themattdimitri/status/1464871187847294978 …

      Glenn Greenwald: "I have never ever, ever, ever heard Tucker frame immigration or any other issue in the racist terms that you attributed to him. In fact, he believes that what is racist is liberal discourse, the idea that we should judge people based on their race." pic.twitter.com/BR2jgKBiIP

      2. There's a school of thought that Greenwald has always been bad. That's just false, although his reflexive contrarianism has sometimes led him into perverse, from about 2005 to 2016 he was a principled critic of torture, imperialism and even xenophobia. He's changed now.

      3. I talk with the astute Greenwald-watcher @EoinHiggins_ to figure out what happened to Greenwald.https://jeetheer.substack.com/p/podcast-what-happened-to-glenn-greenwald?r=bh54&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&utm_source=twitter …

          Will listen later, but my theory is that GG always needed an editor above him to produce good work, and once he was provided with the opportunity to be his own boss (The Intercept, then Substack), the guardrails went off. People don't tend to appreciate how editors are essential.

          It's as easy as looking out for the loudest, most aggressive voices on the left who do more infighting than anything else and to whom Republican excesses seem almost invisible.

          Glenn has always been extremely self-promoting. He (probably correctly) realized that his brand as a rigorous (nominally) liberal reporter wasn't viable after his departure from the intercept and that, instead a better brand was (nominal) liberal who will "call his side out." /1

          The problem is, the only sustainable way to do that js to be "that guy" on Fox. He always was actually a civil libertarian cosplaying as a "progressive." So he shares a sincere disdain for progressivism and a cynical love of his own "brand" with Carlson. Same as Bill Maher /2

          Yes. When a person thinks for themselves there must be an investigation as to what went wrong.

          1. Strange choice since Glenn Greenwald himself is available. 2. Did you ask Eoin Higgins if he will post the 193 Greenwald tweets, including his designation of whether the tweets were positive or negative toward Fox News, so that others may independently review and analyze?
