I read The Intercept because it is one of the most well-researched, well-written and trustworthy independent news outlets out there.

It is my go-to source when my international friends ask "How are things going in Brazil?"

Since I cannot send them my reliable Brazilian articles, sending them pieces from Glenn Greenwald, for example, gets more than the job done.

It's inspiring and fearless journalism done right. Thanks to The Intercept for being simply outstanding in its values, its mission and, above of all, its execution.

The Venerable Glenn Greenwald, one of the company's founders, recently left due to widespread bias on the Intercept, including attempts at censoring reports that contradicted the far-left viewpoints of most 'journalists' working at this establishment.

Glenn Greenwald is a highly respected journalist whose integrity is on display every time he publishes an article because he is anti-corruption and isn't afraid to go after both sides of the aisle when he sees malfeasance and deceptive journalistic practices. It's part of the reason he started the organization, to provide an alternative to mainstream media when they were busy blackballing Edward Snowden who dared to blow the whistle on the US Government's mass surveillance programs.

In short, the Intercept has become just another corrupt media organization that puts agenda over facts. They are not to be trusted and if you think otherwise, you may want to consider the possibility that you are being manipulated and decide whether or not you are ok with that.
