He ultimately concluded it was a sham investigation with no evidence to support it. For that he was roundly attacked.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Greenwald singled out MSNBC tonight in particular for criticism:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt wasn\u2019t just Howard Dean, it was continuously on MSNBC, which\u2013\u2013let 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.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He credited Carlson\u2019s show for letting his audience \u201chear the other side of the story before saying \u201cMSNBC did the exact opposite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was a whole slew, not just me, of left-wing journalists with very high journalistic credentials, far more than anyone on that network, like\u00a0<strong>Matt Taibbi<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Jeremy Scahill<\/strong>\u00a0and and many others, including myself, who were banned from the network because they wanted their audience not to know that anybody was questioning or expressing skepticism about the lies and the scam that they were selling because it was so profitable,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>Greenwald denounced the \u201cfraud that they perpetrated on their audience\u201d and how he and others were accused of being Russian agents, saying \u201cthere\u2019s still no accountability\u201d and they \u201cstill won\u2019t apologize.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He even said that CNN or MSNBC looked like \u201cstate TV\u201d or \u201cCIA TV\u201d for analysts like\u00a0<strong>John Brennan<\/strong>\u00a0that they\u2019ve hired since 2017.<\/p>\n<p>At one point Carlson asked him if there will be any media accountability. Greenwald knocked\u00a0<strong>Rachel Maddow<\/strong>\u00a0in particular and said \u201cshe\u2019s a huge corporate brand and she\u2019s a big celebrity among liberals so they\u2019re going to keep her on the air.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You can watch above, via Fox News.<\/p>\n<p>[<em>image via screengrab<\/em>]<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediaite.com\/tv\/glenn-greenwald-rips-msnbc-to-tucker-carlson-they-fed-people-total-disinformation-and-exploited-fears-on-russia\/\">https:\/\/www.mediaite.com\/tv\/glenn-greenwald-rips-msnbc-to-tucker-carlson-they-fed-people-total-disinformation-and-exploited-fears-on-russia\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Glenn Greenwald Rips MSNBC to Tucker Carlson: They Fed People \u2018Total Disinformation\u2019 and Exploited Fears on Russia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-119647","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119647","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=119647"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119647\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=119647"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=119647"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=119647"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
