1. The New Yorker Today
This excruciatingly laborious piece is a garbage pail of the same old tendentious nonsense with apparently one important new nugget. Read the article if you have time or read next couple of tweets.
newyorker.com/news/news-desk…
2. The nugget: Brett Kavanaugh's classmate Appold told another classmate Wetstone about Ramirez incident; Wetstone confirmed hearing from Appold about it. Appold, however, said he had heard it from another unnamed classmate who he has not been able to contact to confirm.
3. Because Appold couldn't contact the unnamed classmate to confirm, he couldn't wait any longer and contacted FBI to tell them that he had heard of the Ramirez incident. Meanwhile, New Yorker crack team of Farrow and Mayer were able to track down the unnamed classmate. Good job!
4. The unnamed classmate promptly proceeded to inform Farrow and Mayer that he had absolutely no recollection of any such incident. That is it! That is the nugget around which Farrow and Mayer proceeded to write this laboriously long dissertation about nothing.

The End
For reference, here is the nugget:
Don't forget to notice the mention of two Fulbright Fellowships & a Ph.D. for Appold. As if his credentials somehow magically turn his uncorroborated hearsay into evidence. Such is the pitiable state of our journalists today, and Farrow is considered one of the better ones. Sad!
What a snow job by the flowsnakes!
