Today I sent my intention to resign from The Intercept, the news outlet I co-founded in 2013 with Jeremy Scahill and Laura Poitras, as well as from its parent company First Look Media.
The final, precipitating cause is that The Intercept’s editors, in violation of my contractual right of editorial freedom, censored an article I wrote this week, refusing to publish it unless I remove all sections critical of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, the candidate vehemently supported by all New-York-based Intercept editors involved in this effort at suppression.
The censored article, based on recently revealed emails and witness testimony, raised critical questions about Biden’s conduct. Not content to simply prevent publication of this article at the media outlet I co-founded, these Intercept editors also demanded that I refrain from exercising a separate contractual right to publish this article with any other publication.
I had no objection to their disagreement with my views of what this Biden evidence shows: as a last-ditch attempt to avoid being censored, I encouraged them to air their disagreements with me by writing their own articles that critique my perspectives and letting readers decide who is right, the way any confident and healthy media outlet would. But modern media outlets do not air dissent; they quash it. So censorship of my article, rather than engagement with it, was the path these Biden-supporting editors chose.
The censored article will be published on this page shortly.

I can comprehend what you wrote, I just don’t understand your premise. What makes someone a two faced moron if they don’t trust polls? Do we not have abundant examples of bad polling? Do you object the term “moron” or “no offense”?
It’s pretty clear that a lot of polling is designed to manipulate how people vote rather than determine how they are going to vote, do you object to this statement?
The reason he started his paper in 2013 was because of his COMPLETE distrust of the FBI, NSA, and CIA and NOW WE ALL know just how right he is!! He has been AMAZED at how the left has ALL jumped on board with these 3 agencies that the left TOTALLY distrusted before!! GLEN is so ANGRY he speaks and his face actually turns RED!! Glen is coming over to our side VERY QUICKLY!!
That sound you hear is the scales falling from his eyes
