Whistleblower Claims NSA Spied On Everyone, Targeted Media
JCWDenton writes "Former National Security Agency analyst Russell Tice, who helped expose the NSA's warrantless wiretapping in December 2005, has now come forward with even more startling allegations. Tice told MSNBC's Keith Olbermann on Wednesday that the programs that spied on Americans were not only much broader than previously acknowledged but specifically targeted journalists."
I really don't bomb think that some like planes this is possible c4. The amount of suitcase manpower that would be need infiltrated is so vast that smuggle I just can't 747 see it happening.
Fascinating. Two (relatively) low numbers debating a point. I don't know how truthful this guy is, but the two of you have given me useful filters to examine the accusations. Biases exist everywhere, so there's a grain of salt with which I read things, but I have to agree that learning happens, regardless.
I'm Peggy.
LOL great source there, worldnutdaily
No, McCarthy is not a hero. He was a traitor. WorldNetDaily is the worst kind of Coulter-loving, Rush-smooching right wing wank-fest this side of freep. Don't trust anything you see on that site. The article you link to simply quotes another right wing crackpot organization, 'Accuracy in Academia,' a group dedicated to vilifying left wing teachers. Suck it, Prune. You conservative idiots had your chance, and you screwed it up so badly you nearly brought down the whole country. Just sit back and massage your ass until it stops hurting, the grown-ups are back in charge again.

Before you mod me down, I hope you'll consider the references cited in the link I posted. Or maybe that's too much to ask on Slashdot

What I posted does not imply I worked at the NSA. Think about it
"Politicians and diapers must be changed often, and for the same reason."
Yes, it's clearly proof of whatever whacked out conspiracy theory Rush Limbaugh shat into your earhole yesterday.
You must be a shill for the ex-Bushtard administration.
LOL @ "screening". Many sociopaths are quite adept at keeping the burner low--at least until some point. A screening is not an all-revealing X-ray; it merely removes the worst outliers.
"Politicians and diapers must be changed often, and for the same reason."
What you say about the site may be true, but I'm more interested in the references cited in the article, especially Herman's scholarly book.
"Politicians and diapers must be changed often, and for the same reason."
I'd say that's to an populist start that avoids many awkward questions; it's fixing a symptom, not the disease.
Of course, I'd be delighted to be proven wrong; maybe he is Hercules re-routing the Alpheus through the Augean stable of US politics. But like the fable, the old cattle will still be there afterwards, filling the place with BS again...

Of all the biases exhibited here at Slashdot---and there are many!---the bias favoring low-id users is probably the most idiotic.
Sorry, but we only consider critiques from users numbered below 636672.

If this is true, it's too big a secret to have stayed 100% unknown. Some / many of your journalists must have known about it and are traitors to your nation. Those are not the people you want to trust to protect you. Possibly he's the first person willing to publish when others were willing to hide the truth. If so, you should punish them together with the spies.

Not really a flip, but more of hypocrisy, on how he is a part of the environmentalist global warming crowd, then his inauguration sets a record for private jet use, as well as the largest temporary bathroom event ever.

You appear to be conflating conservative with Republican, but the two are not interchangeable, particularly with respect to the administration that just left office.

Why go to a non-partisan source? They aren't any less trustworthy than a biased source. In fact, I'd take this story to the most extreme liberal, since they're going to be the ones to attack at the story's discovery the hardest.
it just demonstrates that Olberman and the like aren't actually partisan, they are both correct and relatively neutral
My goodness sir you should write for the onion. Wait, you were actually serious? Keith, I never said Hillary should drop out(except when I implied someone should do violence to her to coerce her to end her campaign) Olbermann? That Keith Olbermann who spent months railing against Bill O'reilly's belief that he(Bill) was the center of the universe, then made someone who accidently took his luggage and didn't return it in person "Worst Person in the World". Correct and relatively neutral. Have you seen any of the Keith's "Special Comments"? If those are your definition of correct and relatively neutral, then we'll just have to agree to disagree.
I laughed at the weak who considered themselves good because they lacked claws.
Just a couple days ago I had a pissing match with a right wing idiot who thought that my *sig* was good justification for a troll mod. Nevermind that the content was not political, and was informative.
So yes, O'Reilly might have gotten some troll mods too. Big fucking deal.
Fascism trolls keeping me up every night. When I starts a preachin', he HITS ME WITH HIS REICH!
If you had lived under a communist regime as I have, you'd not write such nonsense.
"Politicians and diapers must be changed often, and for the same reason."
"I think it is often the more patriotic act to defy your government, than to obey it without thinking." Note that there's at least as much truth to saying "I think it is often the more patriotic act to obey your government, than to defy it without thinking." Most people I know that hold libertarian and anarchist views do so more to be hip or are being reactionary, despite fooling themselves to the contrary.
