Summary
This document appears to be a page (p. 71) from a book manuscript (possibly titled 'String Puller' or related to the filename 'Epst...') produced during a House Oversight investigation. It details the covert coordination between journalists Laura Poitras and Glenn Greenwald in April 2013 regarding whistleblower Edward Snowden. The text describes strict operational security measures taken during a meeting in New York, including removing cell phones to avoid NSA eavesdropping, and Poitras sharing Snowden's communications with Greenwald to bring him into the plan.
