Just what NBC & MSNBC were lacking: the CIA view. What's the point of having @KenDilanianNBC to serve as a vessel for CIA messaging when you just get it directly from the horse's mouth under the guise of "news"? https://www.huffingtonpost.com/jonathan-valania/la-times-disowns-reporter_b_5770388.html … -Let's hear more denunciations of "state TV"https://twitter.com/TheWrap/status/959430665585401857 …
Isn't it a little strange to constantly rail about "state TV" when it comes to RT & Fox and then hire CIA Directors & General as your "news analysts"? https://twitter.com/TheWrap/status/959430665585401857 … - also, remember this? Anyone who likes to rail about "state TV" should: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/20/us/20generals.html …
Er...this is wildly inconsistent on your part. Snowden, Manning, Ellsberg are all former government employees or contractors. Brennan happens to be a an ex-govt-employee that you don’t like. News orgs SHOULD hire SOME with inside experience...it’s a matter of their perspective.
His tweet is about journalism that is to close to govt / regurgitating the vantage point and how former govt employees have de facto job security or another employment option should they leave govt As opposed to other aspiring or more independent journalists
A good large news organization is going to be able to represent both government views & views critical of government positions favoring one or the other position in its editorial stance. I agree that stenography of government positions is an abandonment of the press’s role./1
Glenn, it seems sometimes or often, is prey to his libertarian influences in thinking that the management of government & governing are ipso facto illegitimate activities. Effective critics of govt actions should understand legitimate roles of government. /2
former directors. they have no need to further any specific agenda and provide situation insight / awareness .. FOX folks have zero non-partisan advisors. its either this side or that. mostly Trump farts and they fan the smell.
these guys have the first hand knowledge what happened Re. current investigations and intelligence that led to them. When shit hits the fan and Trump is INDICTED (that’s what impeachment means btw) they will be first ones to open up w. stuff they currently can’t discuss.
A lot of former military generals/high-level CIA employees get jobs in the defense industry. They have an incentive to keep our military involved in conflict because it makes their company money.
you're right. this makes you being a regular and enthusiastic guest on a white supremacist's tv show totally legit.
apples/oranges Glenn Shame you can't tell the difference. Saying "constantly" was only one thing wrong here. You're beginning to look like "state TV" yourself dude.
Something is askew when Greenwald is playing liaison for WikiLeaks donations, since PayPal, Visa, M/C cut them off.
Hiring former government officials doesn't make something state TV
It has the exact same effect, and considering americans have a very obvious problem with supporting literal war crimes as long as a pundits tell them to do so, I would say this is a big issue. Far bigger issue than tiny RT, for example.
What effect are you referring to?
Pro establishment propaganda passing as news. I would even say that this is worse than state owned media since it pretends to be independent when it isn't. See Manufacturing Consent.
...the whole #propaganda system, because of tech advancements & socio/political, Machiavellian studies, has surpassed the efficiency & vileness of those of the #3rdReich, the U.S.S.R. & Maoist #China combined...#Guantanamo is a modern day #Gulag, only worse- #Welcome2USA4thReich!
He's a private citizen bro. That's a little different than "our government" colluding with your boy Hannity on messaging
Isn’t it a little strange to claim you’re against white supremacy and then constantly guest on a white supremacist’s propaganda program for the purpose of affirming his talking points? Oh yeah, everyone else is the hypocrite and those accusations are never projection wink wink
No. It's not strange. Get a grip.
