    Jeet Heer Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

    This is a frequent defense made by Greenwald of Carlson & Rogan (and others use it to defend Jordan Peterson): "have you really listened to them or just clips?" As if people can't really listen to them & conclude they are demagogues, birdbrains & crackpots.https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/1490095721030328320 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Glenn GreenwaldVerified account @ggreenwald
    I would love to know what percentage of people who are now claiming Joe Rogan is a racist, an agent of disinformation and someone who should be de-platformed have ever regularly listened to his shows as opposed to watching clips selected for them by Media Matters and CNN.

        Jordan Peterson defenders use it the most. "You have to listen to 1000 hours of Peterson to understand what he means."

        If this is true then he should stop doing appearances, lest he further be unavoidably misunderstood.

        Nevermind they make lots of money if you put in those long watch times. No money in watching short clips posted by other people.

        Listening to a lot of these dudes’ messed-up reactionary opinions is exactly the opposite of what people should do.

        I'd be very impressed if Glenn had listened to everything put out by CNN before calling him whatever he regularly calls them.

        I gave the podcaster 10 minutes once, I found it unlistenable, unfunny, uninformed. My wife asks who was he interviewing; I don’t recall him letting anyone else speak.
