Show Notes

Today, on Leonard Lopate at Large, fresh of the heels of Amazon’s retreat from building a new facility in the Long Island City neighborhood of Queens after widespread local opposition, Glenn Greenwald considers the role that the man at the heart of a surveillance scandal has had in funding government efforts on the same front.

“Amazon, the company that has made Jeff Bezos the planet’s richest human being, is a critical partner for the U.S. Government in building an ever-more invasive, militarized and sprawling surveillance state.” Read more in Glenn Greenwald’s latest article for The Intercept, the publication he co-founded.
