Glenn Greenwald Whacks The Intercept for Attacking Reporters Covering Protests: They’re ‘Actively Targeting Two Journalists of Color’

Glenn Greenwald took to Twitter on Thursday to criticize the publication he co-founded for attacking a group of conservative reporters who recorded last year’s racial protests.

“The Intercept is now actively targeting two journalists of color,” Greenwald wrote. “They have two white male reporters here putting a target on their backs for the crime of reporting on Antifa riots. This is genuinely disgusting and dangerous. Press freedom groups should condemn this.”

He was referencing a column published Thursday morning by the publication’s Robert Mackey and Travis Mannon in which the pair took aim at what they described as “eight young journalists.” The group included The Daily Caller’s Shelby Talcott, Jorge Ventura, and Richie McGinniss; Townhall’s Julio Rosas; and videographers Brendan Gutenschwager, Drew Hernandez, Kalen D’Almeida, and Elijah Schaffer.
