[Peace-discuss] Fw: [MEDIAMATTERS] Get on the e-list - PS re Glenn Greenwald

[Jenifer Cartwright]

I gotta bone to pick w/ the generally on point Glenn Greenwald re his answer on last Sunday's Media Matters (8/23) -- i e his (Greenwald's)  statement that Gen Electric, owner of MSNBC, has silenced connentator Keith Olbermann's criticisms of Fox "Noise" and Bill O'Reilly. Here's proof to the contrary from last nite's (8/24) show, "Countdown w/ Keith Olbermann."   http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036677/#32545946
