Glenn Greenwald, The Intercept: Rachel Maddow’s Exclusive “Scoop” About a Fake NSA Document Raises Several Key Questions

That document — from the June 5 Intercept report — was from an unknown NSA official, and purported to describe Russian attempts to hack election officials and suppliers.
Maddow said her report should serve as a “heads up” to other news organizations that someone is attempting to destroy the credibility of those who report on Trump’s connections to Russia by purposely giving them false information.

WNU Editor: Glenn Greenwald is not impressed with Rachel Maddow's scoop about a fake NSA document.
