    We're not in speech or censorship wars, we're in attention wars. I'd argue that both Greenwald's resignation and @benyt's "return of the gatekeepers" is also partly about this: what deserves attention and how much?https://twitter.com/Kantrowitz/status/1321869178106601472 …

        One thing I'd agree with Glenn is that there's no need to waive the Russian disinformation flag here. It's a distraction. Let's talk it out: what deserves attention and why?

        But that becomes a censorship war when the choice of attention is made for me. The ultimate answer is personal responsibility for one's media diet *and* what content has on one. The latter is the most important.

        Really not. The entire point of going to a masthead with editors is so that I can delegate some of the task of filtering noise from signal. I go to @theintercept for fearless investigative journalism. If I want credulous takes on disinformation I can now go direct to Glen.

        Given the tsunami of corrupt acts by the Trump family just since 2016, the alleged drop of poor judgment in 2017 by the Bidens, who were private citizens at the time, is a distraction. Glenn didn't realize that as others did but thought of himself as a lone, brave warrior.
