"We repeatedly emailed the [NY Post] reporter, Laura Italiano, to ask how she arrived at that conclusion but received no response."

washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…
The URL for the original NYPost piece, nypost.com/2021/04/23/kam…, just diverts to the home page. So Italiano is still driving traffic.
The @nypost reporter resigns, and for good measure, throws her boss(es) under the bus
Excellent point thank you

Several times in 2016, a stock trader bought shares of a company that, just minutes later, would be named in a scoop by Bloomberg News deals reporters.

That trader was indicted last week. Bloomberg says it is looking into the matter

My latest via @CJR cjr.org/business_of_ne…
Using inside information, feds say, the suspect bought shares in a little-known Ohio chemical company at 9:37 am one day.

The Bloomberg scoop about a possible takeover of that company was published around 7 minutes later.

One day in July 2016, according to the indictment, the suspect arranged to buy shares of RR Donnelley -- with the purchases starting shortly after 1 pm and ending at 3:48 pm.

At 4:35 pm that afternoon, Bloomberg reported that Xerox was in merger talks w/ Donnelley

This just in: The @nytimes wins its case vs the Trump campaign, which had sued over a column by Max Frankel, former exec editor of the Times.
No actual malice, among other reasons.
"News organizations function as a platform for facilitating constitutionally protected speech on issues of public concern and courts will not impose defamation liability against these entities absent a clear showing of actual malice."

There are many ways of handling layoffs, and Jonah Peretti and Buzzfeed have figured out how to do it in the worst way possible.
From less than 4 months ago:

"Mr. Peretti said BuzzFeed executives will undertake a review of HuffPost’s business before making any significant moves, such as cutting staff or hiring additional employees" wsj.com/articles/buzzf…
"Benefit from greater scale" is a likely sign that your media merger will go awry

The South Dakota attorney general, under investigation for a fatal road accident, said he thought he hit a deer that night.

Going against that theory: They found the victim's glasses in his car -- after his face smashed through the windshield.

How did Harper Lee leave out the 'juror filling out maps of Southeast Asia' story line

Also, Judge Taylor didn't let the jurors leave in the middle of trial. And if he had, Atticus Finch would've objected immediately

In 1974, a smoking-gun tape emerged that led Nixon to resign, under pressure from GOP congressmen.

It’s 47 years later, and we have a new, more damning smoking gun:

“Trump’s Tweet Attacking Pence Came Right After Learning His VP's Life Was In Danger” huffpost.com/entry/trump-pe…
And this >>
Washpost tonight: “Trump’s tweet [about Pence] came at 2:24 — only 11 minutes after live TV showed Pence being hustled from the Senate floor because rioters were streaming into the building.

“Trump was watching news coverage of the session”
