The new documentary Citizen Four gives audiences a close up view of journalist Laura Poitras and Glenn Greenwald’s encounters with Edward Snowden as he supplied them with classified documents on the NSA’s surveillance program. Poitras was able to convince Snowden to allow her to film their encounters. Film contributor Milos Stehlik joins us to discuss the documentary.
