The ever growing gap between Greenwald and Joan Walsh.
It is the height of irony that Salon, which has been obsessed with Democratic primary infighting, links to this post with a front page headline of "Why is media ignoring military propaganda exposé?"
Gee, perhaps for the same reason Salon has ignored the torture approval scandal and the food riots? Because all they care about is a narrow concept of outrage mining, and leave everything else to their few prestige affiliates.
At this point, Greenwald's presence does not redeem Salon because he's not editorial staff, just a blog the site is underwriting. One which could probably survive easily without its support. Meanwhile Salon itself seems to be in flight from the values it once espoused.
