Okay, @nytopinion @nytimes, can you please explain why you’re publishing an article by an editor at Breitbart??

What is going on over there??
Well done, @deanbaquet. Gave Breitbart exactly what they wanted.
Just for your reference, @nytimes, this is just some of the quality content from the outlet where your new Opinion writer works.

Nothing like a “Black Crime” tag to really show you’re doing serious journalism.

ADVERTISERS: @google continues to monetize hate, harassment and disinformation with your money, not just risking the credibility of your brand, but damaging society at the same time. You don’t have to put up with this.
vice.com/en_us/article/…
In 2016, we began notifying advertisers that they were ending up on Breitbart without their knowledge, supporting articles like “There’s No Hiring Bias Against Women In Tech, They Just Suck In Interviews”. Nearly 95% of them were not aware.
According to Steve Bannon himself, companies were providing Breitbart with over $8 million in free cash flow.

This is WITHOUT THE COMPANIES KNOWING ABOUT IT! This is advertising malpractice.

BREAKING: Breitbart *attempts* to sand down some of their edges as a way to placate @AppNexus and owners @ATT as a way to get ads back on their site.

Only problem? They did the bare minimum and boy oh boy is this going to piss off their readership.
Wow. Apparently this is enough for @AppNexus and @ATT.
LOL.

Nice standards, @AppNexus.

Americans are once again allowing the Republican and Democrat party divide us over race, when in fact race is not the issue! Please look at the foreign policies these woman support, and the policies they do not support! This is not about race & we must address the real issues!
@AyannaPressley, @RashidaTlaib, @IlhanMN, @AOC.

I ask for Americans to please look at the human policies these woman are addressing. I ask Americans to actually research the US Foreign Policy that causes massive Refugees and Endless War.
I ask Americans to look at who is funding the election campaigns of their representatives. I ask Americans to question why we are continously at war, when it does not benefit the United States! I ask Americans to research the foreign influence that controls US policy!

Day 2. Still pre-conference. I must confess that while taking notes today, I sincerely wondered to myself: how will I condense this much information in a way that its essence is not lost? So much was said; so much needs to be done. Oya grab your seat. @LagosStudies #lsa2019
The first panel was the Gender and Academy II. Panelists were Yetunde Zaid, Lynn Schler, Bamidele Wale-Oshinowo, Oyeronke Oyewunmi, Mojubaolu Olufunke Okome (@mojubaolu) and Taibat Lawanson (@TaibatLawanson) The first question shows that mentorship comes in various forms.
Who was your first mentor?:

"My first mentor was my Ph.D. supervisor. He was good @ treating students equally&that gave everyone a sense of confidence when starting out with their career. It distilled any competition that we might have&developed a sense of community.” Schler

1. If you are reporting on @KimFoxxforSA & the resistance that she is getting from police, you MUST realize that DA'S exercising discretion INDEPENDENTLY is a "reform" in #Chicago. Before Foxx, generations of SAs were intimidated by #police.
2. They were taught to NEVER question an officer even if a suspect was dead. They gave"deference" and "respect" of officers, and relinquished their discretion to officers. To question an officer, was a sign of "disrespect." They called it prosecuting with "blinders" on.
3. If a SA did not "step in line" to these rules, police would stop coming for trials & blacklist them in the office. Whistle blowers had cases taken from them and upper management would participate in this. One manager threw an ashtray at a DA when he tried to whistle-blow

It's #day3 of the Kavanaugh hearing; I'm watching so you don't have to.

Catch up on #day2 below and follow this thread for a play by play.

dailykos.com/stories/2018/9…
@ChuckGrassley's mouth is moving so you know he's lying.

He's caught Kavanaugh's repetition bug. Complaining about Ds wanting to see Kavanaugh's record. Belly-aching about how senators wouldn't want their emails exposed either.
@maziehirono has a response to the claim that she should have asked Obama appointee Judge Paul Watford, not just Kavanaugh, about affiliation with sexual predator Judge Kozinski.

It's a doozy.

Over the past few months I have collected 500+ Trump, Pence and RNC tracking URLs dating back to June 2016. I've shared bits & pieces of this (⏬) as I've been looking under the hood, in search of the truth behind Project Alamo/Trump marketing ops.

THREAD will be ongoing...
The 500+ links are tracking links. They contain custom variables team Trump/Pence/RNC attached to links so they could measure & analyze performance via Google Analytics.

These are UTM parameters: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTM_param…

I'll share full URL list once I'm done cleaning it up!
You can learn a lot about a marketing program by examining their tracking links. So here's the 1st nugget:

#1: Trump campaign used Facebook Messenger bots to communicate w/voters 1-on-1.

I haven't seen this reported anywhere. If you have, pls send a link!
