Dershowitz: Greenwald's a total phony
Alan Dershowitz, Gloria Allred and CNN's Piers Morgan discuss Glenn Greenwald's actions in aiding Edward Snowden.

-snip-

"Edward Snowden has said, 'I've committed a serious crime,' the newspaper has put this out there," noted Piers Morgan. "Surely he [Greenwald] should be prepared to answer questions about whether anything they have done – in cahoots with this guy, we don't know how far he goes – anything they've done borders on criminality. I think it's a perfectly reasonable question."

Dershowitz, for his part, insisted there is no gray area:

"Well, it doesn't border on criminality – it's right in the heartland of criminality. The statute itself, does punish the publication of classified material, if you know that it's classified," explained the guest. "Greenwald – in my view – clearly has committed a felony."

Continuing his assessment of the reporter, Dershowitz held little back:

"Greenwald's a total phony. He is anti-American, he loves tyrannical regimes, and he did this because he hates America. This had nothing to do with publicizing information."

[niyad]

3. the opinion of alan dershowitz on ANY subject is totally without merit

[tularetom]

6. I had my doubts about Greenwald but if Alan Dershowitz dislikes him

then he's probably OK.

[frylock]

by exposing this crap. thanks for posting!

You've convinced me. Edward Snowden must be doing something right.

[Enrique]

12. this is the second highest honor an American can receive

being called a traitor by Cheney is the top one.

[Quantess]

13. The video wasn't there when I clicked on the link.

Weird. I wanted to see it.

[Tx4obama]

15. I just now clicked on the link in the OP and it is working for me.

Let the full page load, then the video will show right above the short article.
Then after you click arrow on the video is it take a few seconds for the video to start.

Hope that helps

K&R (for exposure of serious, pathetic, and malicious ignorance)

[Romulus Quirinus]

[burnodo]

19. like THAT would happen

[baldguy]

18. Why the fuck should any rational person CARE what fucking *ALAN DERSHOWITZ* has to say?

[Galraedia]

22. Why would any rational American care about what someone who runs to China to leak

information of U.S. foreign intelligence has to say? The world is a mystery.

[baldguy]

23. Good question.

And yet there are many here who are all too eager to sing the praises of one or the other.

[Galraedia]

20. Awh...you hurt the feelings of Snowden's anti-American fanbase :(
