we turn to glenn greenwald, one of the founding editors of the intercept.is latest piece is headlined "a texas elementary school speech pathologist refused to sign a pro-israel oath, now mandatory in many states -- so she lost her job." why don't you talk about exposing this story nationally. we are talking about the law in texas. in fact, more than half the states in the united states have a contract like she was being forced to sign if she wanted to keep her job as a speech pathologist. >> there are 26 states in the u.s. that have some version of this texas law. they're not all as severe as the one in texas, though many of them are. others have very's kinds of restrictions on people who boycott israel, prohibiting the expenditure of any funds to invest in companies, for example, or in pension funds that have companies that invest or advocate a boycott of israel. they all have one thing in common, they impose limitations on the opportunities and abilities of private citizens or private companies that support or participate in the boycott of israel. i think

called the story into question and bolstered the skepticism by quoting tweets from other gone and glenn greenwald wiki leaks itself r t also a crime and mouthpiece could spot next on wiki leaks do you see a pattern here it's clear why there's some skepticism the story raises more questions than answers both we kill eeks and metaphor strongly deny the meeting even threatening legal action ok perhaps they're both simply covering for each other you could say but assad is a man under close surveillance with police literally on his doorstep a few days pass yet no other source can confirm or show substantial evidence of manifolds alleged visit to the ecuadorian embassy because an image or power. the washington times says pull manifolds passports show he didn't even visit london in those years the guardian claim and r.t. are the only ones asking for evidence who are the sources if you can see them doubt anonymous source and is dangerous at best striking catalogue of reflexive credulous acceptance of a story that looked shaky from the start and looks more so by the day maybe they've all been duped by rus

glenn greenwald is here. co-founder of the intercept. i had a tweet of yours today. this is nuts.so glad i didn't grow up in the era of this stuff. if that makes me a fuddy-duddy i am fine with that. >> i am grateful there was no internet when i was an adolescent. i worked to protect the internet and defend privacy on the internet. that's a critical innovation. when i hear stay off of social media, as the father of two children that disturbance me. the internet is an important means of communication. but if we signal to people that your every word will be forever scrutinized, we will destroy the internet or breed a conformist society where everyone is petrified from sounding an off-key note. both are equally terrible. >> laura: i mentioned kevin hart who was going to host the oscars. this is what "saturday night live" said. >> that was short. kevin hart had to step down as host of the awards because of homophobic tweets from 2011. didn't the academy nominate mel gibson just last year. the only black comic i know that is cleaner than kevin hart is booked for the next 7 to 10 years.
