Actor and liberal activist John Cusack was tremendously displeased with NBC's David Gregory Sunday for asking the Guardian's Glenn Greenwald on Meet the Press if he should be charged with a crime for aiding and abetting National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden.
Cusack took to Twitter shortly after it aired going on a several hour rant that included, "In my memory the lowest point for meet the press in its history":
@Thomas_Drake1 @johncusack You Can't Blame A Corporate Shill Like David Gregory For Not Knowing What Journalism Entails...

Reporters should never be "objective" about threats to prosecute other reporters—defending the 1st Amendment is part of the job description.

Those familiar with Cusack should know that he's not averse to criticizing liberals he disagrees with.
In fact, he's called out President Obama on numerous occasions.
Isn't it marvelous watching liberals finally understand how we conservatives feel each and every day about the Obama-loving media?
