Glenn Greenwald on the Manafort/Assange story: “There are a lot more reasons than the valid ones to be “cautious” about the Guardian story. For now, I’ll say: The Guardian & Luke Harding better hope this story pans out – and it might – because that’s a huge, huge thing to print without being sure.”

Green Greenwald states the obvious with this Tweet. It’s unconscionable that the Mockingbird MSM is more interested in publishing “hit” pieces and capitalizing on clickbait trends than publishing actual, verifiable news.

The evolution of the Guardian’s report yesterday on the alleged meeting between Manafort and Assange is the perfect example of this speculation-masquerading-as-news.

Will the real journalists please stand up?

There are a lot more reasons than the valid ones here to be "cautious" about the Guardian story. I'm writing about them now. For now, I'll say: the Guardian & Luke Harding better hope this story pans out – and it might – because that's a huge, huge thing to print w/o being sure t.co/BQLA9KBW2i
