Instead of shitting on other journalists, Buzzfeed, why not *do* journalism? Your biggest investor sits on Facebook's board & is a close friend of Zuck's. He's refused to answer my qs about his sale of Facebook stock - right before Cambridge Analytica story first broke. Why?
You were the main publication shitting on the Cambridge Analytica story two years ago. "Snake oil"! "Conspiracy theory"! And you've been shitting on me ever since I published Wylie's story back in March.

It's all been just a bit odd
You exist only due to Silicon Valley capital. Who are up to their ears in this whole global fascist clusterfuck. And spending months & months going after the reporter who went after them is... an interesting choice of resources
Two weeks before first Cambridge Analytica story broke. Facebook has repeatedly refused to say which execs knew what when.

Fascinating piece that I've been itching for someone to write. Note: Brits, you will think this has nothing to do with you: Mueller, Mossad, Trump. Think again.Not mentioned here are crucial links to Cambridge Analytica, London & its ex-biggest shareholder
newyorker.com/magazine/2019/…
A month after Trump was elected Cambridge Analytica signed a memorandum of understanding with Psy Group, an Israeli intel firm that boasted of using fake social media accounts that helped get Trump elected
....and here's Cambridge Analytica's ex-biggest shareholder, Vincent Tchenguiz, a key figure in the development of the entire industry with major links to both Terrogence & Black Cube

Brexit twitter sleuths. This is a new unredacted "official sensitive" Electoral Commission doc that someone's found...& that I've never seen before. Lots of details about how & why Electoral Commission picked Vote Leave over GO. Lots of questions...dig in
electoralcommission.org.uk/__data/assets/…
A few from me to kick off. What does this reference to the "Panama Papers" mean?? Is inference that Electoral Commission had read about Arron Banks' listing in Panama Papers? If so, shouldn't questions about his donation being "impermissible" should have been flagged BEFORE ref?
Is that what this means?? If so, did Electoral Commission discuss Arron Banks fitness as a donor when discussing whether to make his GO Movement the lead campaign?? And if so, shouldn't the public have had that information?

Lord Hall, director general of the BBC, has declined to retract an erroneous statement about Andrew Neil & his "mad cat woman" tweet. In long & boring detail, I sent the BBC evidence about why it matters. Cue, total silence. So here it is, for the record..
link.medium.com/ktX17MrgcU
...in a nutshell, this wasn't a one-off. Andrew Neil attacked the Cambridge Analytica "conspiracy" over months. He denigrated @chrisinsilico's evidence. He retweeted Guido's attacks. All in breach of the BBC's code on impartiality...
This is interesting. An ex-senior BBC editor also wrote to Tony Hall to complain about Andrew Neil's tweet. And Lord Hall *did* reply to her. Was she impressed by his response? No, she was not...

#Facebook & #Twitter are reported by the Russian state press to “report on their compliance with Russian regulations requiring companies to store Russian users’ data on servers located inside Russia. 👇🏼
“If they refused, both companies faced small fines of 5,000 rubles ($75), though Roskomnadzor was careful to point out that it has no current plans to block the social-media giants.“
(the same outlet later revealed that Twitter’s response actually notified Russian officials that the company’s representatives can’t visit Moscow in January.)

Heads up: I will be live-tweeting @EPAScottPruitt's appearance at this hearing by @EPWGOP & @EPWDem, starting now: epw.senate.gov/public/index.c…
's written Senate testimony begins w/ the same 3 wooden talking points he has used in public appearances starting w/ his Senate confirmation hearing >1 year ago--the last time he appeared in EPW Committee, & in innumerable speeches since. epw.senate.gov/public/_cache/…
's 3 primary goals: (1) refocus EPA on "core mission"; (2) restore power to state through "cooperative federalism"; & (3) improved process & adherence to Rule of Law.

In his 1st year, he flouted all of these principles. Let's examine.

🤡 (1) Twitter has never been all that friendly to conservatives but more than ever accounts are vanishing, week long twitmo punishments handed out, IP bans, #shadowbans and now big accounts are under attack. Spoiler alert: it’s going to get worse and here’s why... #seanhannity
(2) We all got “the email” the one that basically debunked #RussiaBots but @SenFeinstein & @AdamSchiffCA still wrote a letter (more on that later) BUT did you read the blog $TWTR shared? Because it’s important they informed us they had partners helping now. Who are they?
(3) Let’s start with the big fish, Common Sense Media, based out of San Francisco, hugely funded and owned by James (aka Jim) Steyer and guess who his brother is??
