    [WikiLeaks] Glenn Greenwald owns CNN anchor/contributor

    <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/XInz4i6AV8M?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/XInz4i6AV8M?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

    ... and he's absolutely correct in everything. These two women (and CNN by extension) look woefully inept, uninformed, and blatantly slanderous here. Very entertaining video, but would've been more satisfying if the two women actually got it through their thick skulls.

    (I'm not trying to discriminate women, it's just the key differentiator between the two parties here)

    That was awesome.

    CNN won't be inviting Glenn again.

    Straight owned.

    PS - Fran Townsend is a CNN contributor, not an anchor.

    Did they? I am not doubting it but would like to know more of what they were proposing. Do you have a link?

    Thanks for posting this. I'd never have seen the video since I don't watch mainstream news channels and here's why. CNN used to be bad, but this just sinks it to a new low.

    $1,300,000 - $200,000 = $1,100,000

    Yeah, he is just 'surviving'.

    Yeah, because legal costs are just what he's already had to pay. They don't increase; it's a flat fee, right? And this is his only legal dispute he'll ever have, right? RIGHT???

    Looks like Greenwald is still seething after that interview. Well, not openly...

    I find it interesting that you are ignorant of something this basic regarding this story and yet continue to maintain strong opinions about wikileaks' effectiveness and merit.

    Not your usual methodology.

    He will be dead before his court costs exceed one million dollars.

    I'm on the fence about wikileaks, and stuff like this makes me more sympathetic about his cause.

    Meaning someone will probably kill him before it is dragged out that long. He is supposedly releasing documents swiped from Israel, and Israel has no reservations about assassinating anyone who threatens national security.

    Assange is a figure head making bank because of his journalism enterprise acting as a drop box for classified documents.
