The reaction of the American mainstream media to the National Security Agency leak scandal â personalizing it by disparaging leaker Edward Snowden â has exposed cable news and other mainstream media outlets as government mouthpieces that allow for very few points of view to be aired. This was exceptionally ironic as one of the talking points against Snowden was that he went to countries with less than stellar records of press freedom, such as Russia, China and Ecuador. After all, it isn't as though the United States offers diverse opinions on its airwaves or in its print outlets.
