Greenwald on MSNBC Trump-Russia Fraud: “This Whole Scam Saved Them”
March 26th, 2019Via: MediaITE:
The Intercept‘s Glenn Greenwald tore into MSNBC tonight for its Russia coverage following the completion of Robert Mueller‘s report.
Tucker Carlson––who said earlier in his show there needs to be accountability for people who pushed Russia conspiracy narratives––said of Greenwald, “From the very beginning, he questioned the theory. He ultimately concluded it was a sham investigation with no evidence to support it. For that he was roundly attacked.”
Greenwald singled out MSNBC tonight in particular for criticism:
“It wasn’t just Howard Dean, it was continuously on MSNBC, which––let me just say, should have their top hosts on primetime go before the cameras and hang their head in shame and apologize for lying to people for three straight years, exploiting their fears to great profit. These are people who were on the verge of losing their jobs. That whole network was about to collapse. This whole scam saved them. And not only did they constantly feed people for three straight years total disinformation, they did it on purpose, Tucker.”
If perpetrating Russia-Gate saved their jobs then that alone is enough to explain why MSNBC did it. Same goes for 9/11 and the Military Industrial Security Complex.
