Exposing the Dark Forces Behind the Snowden Smears

[Magda Hassan]

A Look at a Smear Artist

It appears the NY Daily News eporter sliming Glenn Greenwald has a legal history of his own:

• Darah Gregorian, NY Daily News "reporter" doing smear job on @ggreenwald came over from the NY Post.
• Defamation suit was filed against NY Post, Darah Gregorian and three of his colleagues in 2007 (?)
• Complaints "stem from Post Article, emblazed with the headline, Gender Bend Shocker, Kinky Sex Suit Gal is a Man' " t.co/9Jds41lbO0
• Court ruling: "Two allegations [against Darah Gregorian et al] might be considered actionable. First is [claim in NY Post article that] Plaintiff engaged in some form of criminal conduct.."
• "…The second statement which may be actionable pertains to the claim [in NY Post story] that Plaintiff was a promiscuous lying slut' " t.co/9Jds41lbO0
• You can read the rest of the court ruling in the defamation case against Darah Gregorian and his colleagues here: t.co/9Jds41lbO0
• Most of the claims against Darah Gregorian and the NY Post were dismissed & case was settled out of court. t.co/9Jds41lbO0
• But method of operation in story that led to defamation case against NY Post and Darah Gregorian looks familiar: as if someone handed Gregorian & Co a fat dossier on their target.
• If you read case against Darah Gregorian and NY Post t.co/9Jds41lbO0 not too hard to guess who might have passed them the dirt on the plaintiff.
• Plaintiff in defamation case against Darah Gregorian (@ggreenwald smearer) had earlier sued this guy: t.co/LdSSRNSh9C Sounds like a lovely fellow.
• So woman sues wealthy Wall Street bankster, claiming sex abuse. PDQ, damaging personal info about her shows up in Darah Gregorian story in NY Post.t.co/9Jds41lbO0
• I report, you decide. But to me, Darah Gregorian looks like a gutter scuttling parasite who feeds off the filth fed to him by his "sources."
• So this is "journalist" smearing @ggreenwald: bit.ly/1agFphy Like something you might find under a rock -- a wet, slimy one. This is what we've come to.
