I’ve been keeping an eye on the journalists leaving MSM and doing their own thing on substack or on podcasts later. Even the leftists pop up to support First Amendment freedom and eventually write fair articles about Trump or the MAGA movement. Glenn Greenwald was one of the early ones. He keeps an eye on Brazil.
My theory is that these journalists will be the ones re-starting journalism - showing how to write neutrally. They needed to distance themselves from their past MSM experience.
If Glenn comes out in support of Bolsonara now, he won’t be able to write on what we think is going to happen in a seemingly fair and impartial manner. Just a hunch I have…
My understanding is that he has had a lot of family stuff - his partner was hospitalized in August for GI issues - bad enough to be in the ICU. Not sure if they have a diagnosis. But that is where his attention and energy has been.

I'm surprised that he hasn't been a leading voice about Bolsonaro's election. However, Glenn has always been left leaning so he may not be motivated.
