But please remember, Goldberg has all the other info he claims he COULD have published but didn’t. Odds on how long before he does disclose anything and everything he has? For his benefit of course. I’m not commenting one way or the other on this group chat fiasco, I am however pointing out that despite his comments of his noble behavior, Goldberg is no angel.

Jeffrey Goldberg is of such renown to those who read--Editor of The Atlantic who led it to 3 Pulitzers AND host of one of the most-watched PBS political shows weekly AND publisher of several books AND former IDF officer.

Publishing any of this was not to Goldberg's benefit. He did so to bring a MAJOR security problem to light -- what good investigative journalists do.

Today, he's published more to prove the Trump people all LIED to the Congress & Senate that they didn't send classified materials over an unsecured media.

Again, what a good journalist does -- reveal enough of the source material when needed to prove the veracity of the story.

Even Walter Duranty won a Pulitzer.

Goldberg didn’t win a Pulitzer himself. Since becoming Editor of The Atlantic he has fostered an environment that led to 3 of his writers winning Pulitzers. Takes a special talent to see a writer who can write, and excellent editing to bring it across the finish line.
