Can the media please start saying "Greenwald's husband" instead of "Greenwald's partner"? They're married, and "partner" has a business connotation that's just confusing in this context when you don't know the history of the couple.



Glenn referred to him as "my partner" himself. Maybe this couple prefers that term?

He also used the word "spouse" in some tweets. Doesn't look like there's a consensus - not that it really matters.
