The same thing happened with Julian Assange. Thanks to the media, the only thing the average person knows about him is not what he helped uncover but instead that he is either a "villian" or "hero." Snowden is the new Assange.

I'm at a loss to explain how such a well-worded article ended up with such an unrelated title. I don't think the author blamed the media once, and I honestly don't think that's what he really means.

The people are part of the "national conversation" too, so to the extent that they refuse to have a serious conversation on Twitter I don't see how you blame that on the media.

I'm at a loss to see how an article with this title ended up on CNN.

CNN probably takes the cake for the most unprofessional, irresponsible journalism in their coverage of PRISM.

(Sorkin is a close second, only because of the irony of someone from the New York Times saying that a journalist should be prosecuted for publishing leaked information[0])

*I am only commenting on the title of the post and the source (I agree with mpyne's opinion on the artical itself)

Does anyone else think it's funny that the title is about 'Media' ruining the NSA debate posted on CNN. I think it's funny.
