so we -- the -- glenn greenwald is also saying this. this is a quote from him.meless pathological liar, that adam schiff was going on the media talking about the hunter biden story claiming this is russian disinformation. he's citing a letter from 50 former intelligence officials, but he left out the crucial fact that these former intelligence officials admitted they did the not know for sure that this would, this really was russian disinformation, right? so that's in their letter, even though that they speculate that it is, that hunter biden's story is russian disinformation, you know, that's a crucial fact. so how can you now report that, right? i mean, we've got dan rather saying the media is harder on joe biden than donald trump and that we've got cnn anchors saying this hunter biden story is, quote, too disgusting to repeat on camera. when there's government documents spelling out what is going on. your thoughts on that, kt. >> well, the cnn anchors, the same cnn anchors are calling donald trump a fascist and a nazi. again, i think this is all upside down,

but we all knew glenn greenwald was needling a few too many powerful people. so it was, it was time to digitally black bag him and leave him in a basement eating. cockroaches just survive. the internet journalist equivalent of eating cockroaches would be cheetos i believe. but i don't know if you can survive on cheetos. i mean, are they like 4 parts fluffed styrofoam and one part or nj, what's the recommended daily dose of orange moving on to the next big censorship action last week, amazon decided to ban a book, exposing how capitalism is made covert 19 a 100 times worse. the censored book is capitalism on a ventilator the impact of covert 19 in china and the us. this anthology of 55 articles by a broad range of social justice authors discuss the importance of free health care, social distancing, testing protective equipment, education and social mobilizations. during the pandemic, to truly understand how, how insane it is that, that they censor this. you have to consider what the amazon does publish and sell all day every day. they sell thousands of complete

your reaction to glenn greenwald there? >> i think greenwald is exactly right.ith everything greenwald says, we are covering from different political spots on the spectrum. he is courageous speaking out for free speech and speaking out against efforts of censorship. there used to be in a time in the democratic party where you would have defenders of free speech, you would have defenders of a free media. today's democratic party doesn't do that. one of the most chilling aspect of today's hearing in the judiciary committee was senate democrat after senate democrat, their questions were essentially, and you mentioned senator blumenthal. he was one of the more aggressive on this. their questions were why don't you censor more? why do you allow these views we don't like to be heard or to exist? i think that is really, really dangerous. i do think you're going to see the abuses of power get worse in coming years with aided and abetted by democrats that want to silence someone who disagrees. elizabeth: yeah. you know what is also interesting, the other thing happening

rooms mostly female senior communications communication staff right it's not all praise reporter glenn greenwalding past from the biden wants to head the office of management and budget she helpe spread the conspiracy theory that russian hackers changed hillary 2016 votes to trump including tweeting why does he lie about this? because he knows people have intuitive sense russia did enough damage to effect more than 70,000 votes in three states. that's just the start of her long list of controversies. this is interesting. i'm looking at all these names that served as communications people under donald trump under and it's all women. they don't get any credit for breaking gender barriers? can get this just goes back to what just blows a hole in their argument again, they always are there for women's progression, breaking the glass ceilings, that's not true unless you are democrat woman. the first congresswoman didn't get any credit because she was republican. you had sarah sanders who was there first white house press secretary to have small childre didn't get the glowing profile of being a woman

and not be able to do that with impunity and so i would hope even some leftists, people like glenn greenwaldtt tybee worried about the confluence of big tech, big government, big media can get behind these efforts alongside conservatives. >> let's bring in steve for a final word. >> i agree but i would go further. the problem is concentration of power over what we say or think in the hands of a tiny number of people, and yet we see competition with respect to twitter, not so much social networks but long-term the real answer is to break up these companies. that is what mark zuckerberg fears more than anything. if you break up the company, it won't matter so much with the controlling attitude. >> what changed the conversation, thank you so much. a new round of lockdowns beginning to sweep the country ahead of the holiday season. will americans comply? will you? life pictures from the international space station in the space x capsule. some hot cocoa? mom, look! are you okay? head home this holiday with the one you love. visit your local mercedes-benz dealer today for exceptional lease and fin

so i would hope that even from leftists, people like glenn greenwald.e worried about the confluence of big tech, big government and big media can get behind these efforts alongside conservatives. >> shannon: let's bring in steve for a quick final word. >> i agree with that but i would go further and say that the real problem is the concentration of power over what we say and therefore what we think in the hands of a tiny number of people. facebook and twitter dominating. seeing some competition certainly with respect to twitter, not so much in terms of social networks. i think long term the real answer is to break up the companies. that's the thing mark zuckerberg fears more than anything. section 230 reform. he has the resources. break up the company, more competition. it won't matter so much if you have the controlling attitude. all sorts of other places to go to share information. >> shannon: it would change the game. change the conversation. thank you both. a new round of lockdowns beginning to sweep the country ahead of the holiday season. will ame

happening, to your point about groupthink, interesting bedfellows in america where you see grendel glenn greenwaldtraditional liberals and conservatives meeting together. it is no longer republicans versus democrats, red state versus blue, blacks versus whites, male versus female, it is america versus the industry that is creating the conflict. we are starting to figure this out. we are saying as long as you pit white versus black, versus straight, you are keeping us busy so we don't look at you. so we don't look at the media and the industrial complex that controls the algorithm or the comfy political establishment. what is we? all of us stop fighting against ourselves so we can destroy the whole thing. >> dana: a lot of the analysis in the past couple of weeks, many people as part of this because he said it, and actual americans that really believe that stuff, and he believes that one day he will re-examine their lives and they will come to see them right. and the exact opposite of the reason he wants to go into journalism in the first place. the reporter sent reporters out across america to try
