Over the years, Intercept co-founder Glenn Greenwald has made more than a few enemies. What some of his fans and supporters see as a crusade for truth and justice can strike others—including those who become the targets of his journalistic crusades—as needlessly hostile and potentially biased.

His departure in turn created an opening for Bolsonaro, a man who is often compared to Donald... Continue reading at 'Columbia Journalism Review'
