I was suggesting the Snowden interview could be intentionally staged to create a distraction from the bigger issue. Which it's done really well. Now everyone is talking about Snowden, whether he's a traitor or a hero, why this inexperienced kid had all this access to "the entire intelligence community", etc.
If he is real, he's going off the radar for his own protection. If he gets picked up by the CIA, he's going off the radar. If he's fake, he's going off the radar too. He's going to disappear regardless.
I think it's an unnecessary distraction from the core issue of the US government having unfettered spying access.
