Greenwald did not win a Pulitzer, but claims he did on his wiki page. ucrdem Apr 2014 #111
He wrote his own wiki? nt Union Scribe Apr 2014 #114
Who do you think writes it? nt ucrdem Apr 2014 #115
Could you cite something to show Union Scribe Apr 2014 #116
The point is his wiki is dishonest. The info is false. Not true. Whopper royale. ucrdem Apr 2014 #117
Not true? Like the claim you're making Union Scribe Apr 2014 #118
Greenwald did not win a Pulitzer. Pulitzer link here: ucrdem Apr 2014 #120

Greenwald did not win a Pulitzer Prize. Sorry. nt ucrdem Apr 2014 #122
Can't even own up to it, can you. Union Scribe Apr 2014 #123
I'm not the one claiming GG won a Pulitzer. nt ucrdem Apr 2014 #124
Neither, apparently, is Greenwald. nt Union Scribe Apr 2014 #125
Great, we've established that Greenwald didn't win a Pulitzer. ucrdem Apr 2014 #126
That wasn't in question. Union Scribe Apr 2014 #127

Naaah. Greenwald is in a bit of a fix. MADem Apr 2014 #104
I didn't think that the question Snowden asked was all that soft. JDPriestly Apr 2014 #119
Do you think Snowden came up with that question on his own? theboss Apr 2014 #131
I think the question put Putin on the spot. I think Putin lied big time, and everyone in the JDPriestly Apr 2014 #135

Absolutely. That is why Snowden asked this question. He put Putin on the spot. JDPriestly Apr 2014 #134

We will have to agree to disagree. MADem Apr 2014 #143
Putin is a conceited jerk. Snowden is no fool. He knows that. But Snowden is clever. JDPriestly Apr 2014 #144
