Honest factual question: has Greenwald ever met Snowden in person?

[Recursion]

Can someone who reads Glenn more than I do tell me?

[JaneyVee]

1. He filmed an interview with him.

[KittyWampus]

2. an interview was filmed… but by GG?

[Recursion]

3. I thought what's her name did that?

I don't see Glen in that but I may be watching the wrong edit.

11. Glen is asking the questions, Poitras is filming.

4. He had contact with Snowden prior to Snowden getting the job at Booz

The job which Snowden has admitted getting for the specific purpose of stealing secrets.

When Snowden is tried, Greenwald will be an accessory.

5. Well, I'm leaving that question aside for the moment

I'm just trying to figure out if they've been in the same room at the same time.

[think4yourself]

7. Yes.

The latest video (from der Spiegel article) has some additional footage from the original Hong Kong hotel room interview.
Greenwald asks Snowden several questions.

6. Have you? You seem to think you know as much about him as Greenwald. n/t

[Pretzel_Warrior]

8. He went on secret mission to see him. Operation Snow Job

Is that already trademarked?

[flamingdem]

14. No just Operation Snowball

You're in the clear

[railsback]

9. That's a good question, one I'm completely unable to answer

But there seem to be plenty here that have very intimate details of both Greenwald and Snowden, like a deep down, mental connection where they can read the thoughts of those two.

10. They met in Hong Kong.

Greenwald expressed his amazement at seeing a young guy standing before him. He had assumed his whistleblower would be at the end of his career having had a fulfilling life, never expecting someone who was giving up their future to do this. He tried to tell Snowden the consequences, and it sounded to me like he felt so bad for the guy he was talking him out of it for his own good. But Snowden was resolute.

[Pretzel_Warrior]

12. Really?

17. Here's the NYT account.

[Recursion]

15. Fixed, thank you

I keep getting that wrong.

[Luminous Animal]

16. You are welcome. And thanks for the fix!
