(135,425 posts)he's got an agenda, he's not an honest broker, and my goddamn book isn't gonna sell fer shit now...damn, damn, damn!!! Maybe I shouldn't have taken a job with the guy who supported the Ukrainians! Maybe Pootie is getting back at MEEEEEEEE too??? SHIT!!!"
I really don't know what it means, to be honest...but my head hurts. Snowden playing Martin to Putin's Lewis is just terribly staged and not believable as a spontaneous event.
And as for Greenwald, what kind of "reporter" doesn't check to see what his boss's "affiliations" are? Someone who needs MONEY more than he needs a decent reputation?
I am still turning this over in my mind:

FWIW, the "Mark Ames" quoted in that piece is the same Mark Ames who used to work with Matt Taibbi at the Moscow publication The eXile.
So much convergence....Walt Disney was right, in a creepy way. It's a small world, after all....
