Heaven forfend I quote something "biased" against him, like the New York Times.

There's more, of course. Him tweet an Republican attack video to smear Elizabeth Warren.

Or the big press announcement that fizzled when it was found that the terrible NSA practices he was complaining so bitterly about - were already stopped as soon as Obama got into office.

Or the claim that the Justice Department trash talked their (non-) story:

Things like that. Greenwald has a tendency to add fictional embellishments to real stories so as to fit his narrative better, so it's not quite as easy catching him as it is Donald Trump.
