Snowden confidante gets book deal
NEW YORK (AP) – The reporter central to revealing the massive U.S. government surveillance efforts has a book deal.
The Guardian’s Glenn Greenwald has signed with Metropolitan Books for a book to be published in March. Metropolitan announced Thursday the book would include additional material on government operations and its “extraordinary cooperation” with private companies.
Greenwald is a journalist and commentator for the Guardian, whose reports have been based on documents leaked by former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden. Greenwald has written three books in which he argues the government trampled on personal rights in the name of national security.
