I want to be transparent with everyone about what the reporting at PROOF is building toward—and will continue to build toward for the next year and beyond: that Donald Trump committed the gravest crime since the U.S. Civil War by orchestrating a rebellion. Sethabramson.substack.com
(PS) So if folks wonder why PROOF is one of the only outlets in the U.S. focusing on the events of January 4 and 5 as well as January 6, it's because there must be now—and will *eventually* be widely—an effort to expose Trump as one of the most notorious criminals in our history.
(PS2) There's a reason that in its first 45 days of publication, PROOF was threatened with a lawsuit by both Roger Stone and Michael Flynn. There's a reason the Trump campaign is an email subscriber to the site. Trumpworld understands the importance of what is happening at PROOF.
(PS3) I'll shortly be sending out an email to the 30,000 subscribers to PROOF—I can't believe the list is so big, after less than 8 weeks!—filling everyone in on what the site has accomplished in just this very short period. I'm really excited to share this update with everyone!

BREAKING NEWS: Cy Vance, the Manhattan DA leading the criminal investigation of Donald Trump in New York City, will not seek another term and will instead dump the case on his successor—a very bad sign. It's also (sadly) one I called a month ago, at PROOF. sethabramson.substack.com/p/some-say-the…
(MORE INFORMATION) We don't know who Vance's successor will be yet; what their commitment to this investigation will be; how long this will set the investigation back; or what threats—et cetera—occurred behind the scenes to provoke this. It's all bad news.
PS/ I continue to say that America has no mechanism to check the criminality of Donald Trump *unless* it's a whole-of-government commitment by federal law enforcement. Even then, it'd be the hardest and riskiest thing the FBI has ever done. They appear to have no appetite for it.

🆚: (MAJOR REPORT): For the first time in U.S. media, Donald Trump's plan for the January 6 insurrection has been itemized, fully sourced, and annotated. The 12-part strategy, never before outlined, is terrifying—and involves elements not widely discussed. sethabramson.substack.com/p/here-is-the-…
PS/ As most of you here know, the "🆚" symbol means content accessible "via subscription." I use this icon both for certain PROOF content and content from sites like the Washington Post and the WSJ. You can find dozens of free articles at PROOF to decide if you want to subscribe.
PS2/ There are *47* free articles at PROOF—all published in the last 60 days, and the product of hundreds of hours of research/writing. I know not everyone subscribes to the many outlets that are 🆚—WP, WSJ, NYT, Daily Beast, &c—so I offer scores of reading-hours of free content.

🆚: BREAKING NEWS: The scandal regarding the secret, 20-person "war council" at Trump International Hotel the night before the insurrection just went—well—international. There's now significant evidence that Trump's team sought aid from a key foreign ally. sethabramson.substack.com/p/brazils-murk…
(PS) As most of you reading this know, the "🆚" icon is used on this feed whenever I'm linking to a media outlet (for instance, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, or the Daily Beast) that is offering the linked-to content "via subscription" (in this case, just $5/mo.).
(PRIOR REPORT) If you want the background on the burgeoning insurrection-related Trump-Brazil scandal—the first signs of it, which led us, inexorably, to today's new revelations—it is available at PROOF in a free-to-all article from February 6, 2021: sethabramson.substack.com/p/breaking-maj…

I very much agree with the decision made by Dr. Seuss Enterprises. I also first learned about imagination, as a child, from TO THINK I SAW IT ON MULBERRY STREET. It's a book that requires the removal of one square of image/text to keep publishing. I wish that would be considered.
(PS) I'm not sure I've ever encountered a book as useful for teaching imagination to young children as that book. It absolutely should no longer be published with that square of image and text in it. But Dr Seuss enterprises does have the authority to remove that image and text.
(PS2) As I understand the situation, the offensive content—unquestionably offensive—is the yellow coloration of a character and use of the word "Chinaman." My understanding is that if the yellow were removed and the phrase "man from China" inserted, the book could be published.

In the last five years of following Maggie Haberman, I've never once seen her distinguish between the word "journalist" and the word "reporter." When she does that for the first time, this journalism professor—who teaches 25 genres of journalism—will take her expertise seriously.
The four principles that govern responsible reportage are objectivity, accuracy, transparency and honesty. When you overuse anonymous sources, continue using sources after they've lied to you, and engage in access journalism, you violate the latter three of these four principles.
I encourage people to read widely about 21st c. journalism. This semester I'm teaching a course on the subject at UNH, so I know how complex, subtle and thorny the topic is. Anyone selling you a line about how journalism works that sounds like it came from 1950 should be ignored.
