When Will the Other Shoe Drop? 'More To Come' in NSA Leaks
Save your energy, Greenwald warns - you will need it
Jun 11, 2013
Any minute now journalist Glenn Greenwald could release the next installment of the historic NSA leaks that infamous whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg referred to as the most important in history.
There will be plenty more to come, journalist Glenn Greenwald insisted in an interview with the Associated Press on Tuesday referring to a trove of information yet to be revealed.
Greenwald, the journalist who first reported on the vast extent of a NSA surveillance program through documents leaked by the American defense contractor Edward Snowden, told AP, "We are going to have a lot more significant revelations that have not yet been heard over the next several weeks and months."
"There are dozens of stories generated by the documents he provided, and we intend to pursue every last one of them," Greenwald said.
Greenwald told AP the decision is currently being made on when to release the next story based on the information provided by Snowden.
In anticipation of what is to come, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper should save his "melodrama and rhetoric," Greenwald tweeted earlier--referring to Clapper's anti-leak media campaign in recent days.

An Urgent Message From Our Co-Founder
Dear Common Dreams reader, It’s been nearly 30 years since I co-founded Common Dreams with my late wife, Lina Newhouser. We had the radical notion that journalism should serve the public good, not corporate profits. It was clear to us from the outset what it would take to build such a project. No paid advertisements. No corporate sponsors. No millionaire publisher telling us what to think or do. Many people said we wouldn't last a year, but we proved those doubters wrong. Together with a tremendous team of journalists and dedicated staff, we built an independent media outlet free from the constraints of profits and corporate control. Our mission has always been simple: To inform. To inspire. To ignite change for the common good. Building Common Dreams was not easy. Our survival was never guaranteed. When you take on the most powerful forces—Wall Street greed, fossil fuel industry destruction, Big Tech lobbyists, and uber-rich oligarchs who have spent billions upon billions rigging the economy and democracy in their favor—the only bulwark you have is supporters who believe in your work. But here’s the urgent message from me today. It's never been this bad out there. And it's never been this hard to keep us going. At the very moment Common Dreams is most needed, the threats we face are intensifying. We need your support now more than ever. We don't accept corporate advertising and never will. We don't have a paywall because we don't think people should be blocked from critical news based on their ability to pay. Everything we do is funded by the donations of readers like you. When everyone does the little they can afford, we are strong. But if that support retreats or dries up, so do we. Will you donate now to make sure Common Dreams not only survives but thrives? —Craig Brown, Co-founder |
