Glenn Greenwald Slams NBC’s Dilanian: He’s a ‘Puppet and Mouthpiece’ of the CIA

‘Now he is the star reporter at the MSNBC and NBC, where that is all he does, just blindly and mindlessly repeat what the CIA tells them to say’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

GREENWALD: "Well, it is really amazing because we at ‘The Intercept’ did a FOIA request where we asked the CIA to turn over there communications with reporters, which they can't do on national security grounds because they're communicating with journalists. And they turned over e-mails that had all kinds of communications between the CIA and Ken Dilanian, where he would say, 'I'm about to report on you. Here's the draft that I want to say? What do you guys think? What should I change?' We published all those e-mails and lots of liberals said, 'Ken Dilanian is the worst, he's a servant of the CIA.' He got pushed out of the 'L.A. Times,' but ever since then, he’s kind of climbed up/fell off the ladder, and he's now the star reporter at the MSNBC and NBC, where that is all he does, is just blindly and mindlessly repeat what the CIA tells him to say. He gives them anonymity and he's essentially their puppet and their mouthpiece, and that is called journalism over at MSNBC."
