Hats off to Greenwald as he is playing the game supremely so far making it hard for the vested MSM to sweep under the rug or defame. I'm sure that the media in Brazil and France won't be sweeping the matter under the rug and down the memory hole. Wait until the docs come out about Putin being bugged.

You have a right to get this info from the state, but you have no right to get it from Greenwald in any way, shape or form. You should be grateful he is willing to risk becoming a total pariah for providing this invaluable service virtually no other journalist is willing to provide.
