  • Review of How Tech Billionaires on the Right Bought the Loudest Voices on the Left by Eoin Higgins (Bold Type Books, 2025) Glenn Greenwald In the mid-2000s, Glenn Greenwald decided to leave his constitutional law practice and devote himself to political commentary full time.

The article from MSN discusses the political evolution and current stances of journalists Glenn Greenwald and Matt Taibbi, highlighting their shift towards right-wing politics. Initially known for their critical reporting on government overreach and corporate influence, both have increasingly aligned with conservative viewpoints, particularly in their criticism of what they perceive as the excesses of the left, including cancel culture, identity politics, and perceived censorship by social media platforms. Greenwald, once a darling of the left for his role in the Snowden leaks, has become a vocal critic of Democrats, accusing them of hypocrisy and authoritarianism. Similarly, Taibbi, famous for his scathing critiques of Wall Street, has also moved towards a more libertarian and conservative audience, often appearing on right-wing media outlets. Their work now frequently resonates with themes popular among right-wing audiences, such as skepticism towards mainstream media narratives, concerns over free speech, and opposition to what they see as the overreach of progressive policies. This shift has led to both journalists being celebrated by conservative figures while drawing criticism from their former allies on the left.
