I think the Weiss thing is proof that "the resistance" to corporate entertainment media is now forming their own tribe.

It's a stretch from Weiss to Greenwald and an ocean to Matt Taibbi. The only thread joining the 3 is that they are all on Substack. In fact, when Weiss was at the NYT Greenwald would criticize her her ultra orthodox views. That all ended when she joined Substack.

She just started on Substack. Give Glenn some time. Geesh.

I enjoy and appreciate Glenn and even subscribe to him, but he is a businessman in the way Taibbi is not. If it is in his best interests, Greenwald will not criticize Weiss. It's why I love Taibbi so much. He is the last of the hopeless romantics.

Totally disagree. When Matt puts his actual neck on the line the way Glenn does, before the fact rather than after it appears somewhat safe to do so- that'll be the day.
