NSA- Finally, finally the list is released.

From what I've read here on DU and what I've seen in the media, I thought the "list" of Americans the NSA has pied on would be short and would say simply

EVERYONE


I also thought (based on DU posts) it would reveal things we DIDN'T know, after the 2008 hearings. But, it seems that the "explosive" news includes people that the NSA STOPPED tracking in early 2008, BEFORE the hearings.

Basically, we know nothing new.

Thanks to Greenwald, the saying has been changed to: "When handled correctly, no news can be turned into a profitable book deal, along with a well-paying job at 'The Intercept'."
