Major Media Bias Towards NSA Defenders

Take, for example, the episode of Face the Nation, which aired on Sunday, November 3rd. A major point of discussion? The Snowden NSA revelations. The guests to discuss it? Senator Dianne Feinstein, Rep. Mike Rogers, and former NSA boss Michael Hayden. Basically, those three are the biggest defenders of the NSA outside of current NSA employees. To argue that this isn‘t a clear „bias“ is ridiculous. But at least Greenwald is clear where he stands. CBS and Face the Nation still pretend that they‘re objective.
