This is not meant as a slam against @TheAtlantic, but why @TheAtlantic and not the @NYTimes? (Or maybe it's a slam on the Times, instead?) Just curious about the venue. Is there something I am missing?
it has been pointed out to me that the Atlantic ran this this morning:
theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
though the Times ran a similar-sounding piece today:

and another!

So, have you heard about the @axios scoop on Rep. Eric Swalwell and the spy from China?

Well, if you are relying on @abcnews, @CBSNews, @NBCNews, @NPR, @CNN, @washingtonpost or @nytimes then the answer is no, you probably haven't.

I mean, it's not like @nytimes doesn't play off of Axios stories... Image

[in case @neontaster misses these]

Here are @paulkrugman and @CharlesMBlow writing in the @nytimes about @repjohnlewis's words: "“I don’t see this president-elect as a legitimate president,” Lewis said."

Krugman now: "And no, Democrats never said Donald Trump was illegitimate"
>@paulkrugman in his own words: "So this was a tainted election. It was not, as far as we can tell, stolen in the sense that votes were counted wrong, and the result won’t be overturned. But the result was nonetheless illegitimate in important ways..."

1/ Remember this @realDonaldTrump tweet about a "report" on @OANN that "DOMINION DELETED 2.7 MILLION TRUMP VOTES NATIONWIDE"? The story been deleted from OANN's website.
2/ I reported at the time that it was not on the website, but had only run on the air:
3/ As it turns out, it WAS on the website, at least briefly. Here's a cached version:

It is literally the top story on the Twitter News tab, but the tweet is still up and unlabeled.

Good grief, @Twitter. Has @zlj517 got something on you?
Here's the tweet so you can see if it's still up. As of 10:54, it is:

I asked Edison Research about this @OANN report that @realDonaldTrump tweeted about: A spokesperson told me: "It is hard to respond to these reports that not only have no legitimacy but for the most part seem to be completely made up." 1/2
"Edison Research has no evidence of any voting irregularities and any claims that you see like this did not come from us." 2/2

"The #1619Project does not argue that 1619 is our true founding."

"The 1619 Project is a major initiative observing the 400th anniversary of the beginning of American slavery. It aims to reframe the country’s history, understanding 1619 as our true founding..."
