Hey @fineout, remember this story? Ready to admit your "reporting" was hilariously incorrect or are you just going to pretend that the Democratic performance didn't embarrass you?

It's time for some media accountability.

politico.com/news/2022/11/0…

How about you, @JoshKraushaar? Remember this story? Are you willing to take accountability for being embarrassingly wrong in your "reporting?"

Accountability time for this horserace garbage.

axios.com/2022/11/02/mid…

Hey @juliebosman, how'd this story turn out? Following the Fox News narrative just led to you and your fellow writers' embarrassment. Crime barely factored in exit polls.

Care to offer a mea culpa for being hilariously wrong?

nytimes.com/2022/11/03/us/…

As White House bureau chief, @ToluseO, don't you feel embarrassed by this story? I mean, you got it hilariously wrong. Painfully wrong.

Are you going to cop to crapping the bed on this one or are you going to hope we didn't notice?

washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/…

Hey @clive_crook, on a scale of 1-10, how idiotic do you feel after writing this story? Personally, I'd be at about an 11 after being so humiliatingly wrong after the election. I mean... stunningly wrong.

Time to admit you screwed the pooch.

bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Maybe "Senior Reporter" @StCollinson had a senior moment when he wrote this story, which is wrong in too many ways to describe in a tweet. How bout those eCoNoMiC cOnCeRnS, buddy?

Can we expect you to admit you embarrassed yourself with this reporting?

cnn.com/2022/11/07/pol…

Hey @lmkornick, wondering if you're going to admit that Reid was right in this story you hilariously wrote? "Conspiracy theory?" Is that what Fox "News" calls facts nowadays?

Anyway. It's not too late to admit you were clownishly wrong.

foxnews.com/media/reid-cla…

So @RyanLizza, quick question. Was @SimonWDC an "optimistic apostle," or was he just, you know, correct, unlike so much of your outlet's reporting on the so-called "red wave?"

And will we see a post-op on how y'all crapped the bed on this narrative?

politico.com/news/2022/11/0…

Hey @gdebenedetti, I wonder if Democrats were "very nervous" because of reporting like yours that had no basis in fact and has now been proven hilariously wrong?

I mean, just a thought. It'd be great if you acknowledged you were stupendously wrong.

nymag.com/intelligencer/…

Imagine being @emmaplatoff the day after her story was embarrassingly proven hilariously wrong. I'm not great at math, but is a 9-point victory a close race? Was Bloduc ever in danger of winning?

Will you own up to a stupidly wrong story?

bostonglobe.com/2022/11/06/nat…

Can you believe @gideonrachman and @sbg1 had a whole danged clown conversation about how abortion didn't matter and Republicans were "on the rise?"

Hoping they have a mea culpa session where they acknowledge they were embarrassingly wrong.

ft.com/content/20aedb…

Perhaps @_ananyaaa should stick to tech reporting after this hilarious story. How much, precisely, did those things "chip away" at Democrats' hopes?

More importantly, will you apologize to your readers for getting this ridiculously wrong?

qz.com/us-midterms-bi…

Similarly, maybe @DEADLINE reporter Bruce Haring should stick to celebrity obits after the "shellacking" he so authoritatively suggested Democrats would take.

Will we get an apology or acknowledgement of this clown take being stupendously wrong?

deadline.com/2022/11/bill-m…

No, @chrissmithnymag, Kathy Hochul was never in danger of losing despite your gutter-tier clickbait headline and clownishly wrong "reporting."

We would appreciate acknowledgement of your wrongness.

vanityfair.com/news/2022/11/n…

I get that @ChrisCillizza is easy pickings for being one of the worst hacks, but miracles are possible and just maybe he'll own up to being clownishly wrong about the election, as indicated in one of the stupidest articles in existence in the past week.

cnn.com/2022/11/02/pol…

Man, @juliannagoldman just stepped in a pile of stupid, didn't she. Is this the wrongest story of the election? Probably not. But it's still embarrassing.

Please correct the record. We're all laughing at you.

washingtonpost.com/business/democ…

The only thing "limp" here, @girlstothefront, is your reporting. Your career as a reporter may be "dwindling" if this is the quality of your political analysis.

You can make things better by admitting you have been embarrassed by your limp reporting.

vox.com/midterm-electi…

Here's @nathanlgonzales with a searing take on the election that... turned out to be pure horseshit.

Maybe you should be more worried about your declining reporting abilities than "escalating GOP gains."

rollcall.com/2022/11/04/fin…

Too many @politico hacks to name in this piece, but if this is the GOP "hitting their stride" I can only assume they were striding to the toilet.

More spectacularly failed reporting.

politico.com/news/2022/11/0…

Hey @Brett_Samuels27, what "rout" would that be? Your story reports as "fact" that Democrats would lose big. Did I miss the "midterm victories next week" you stated as fact?

I'd appreciate an answer. Maybe you got confused?

thehill.com/homenews/campa…

I mean, @HowardKurtz has been embarrassing himself on the regular ever since he abandoned the Washington Post for Fox News lower standards, but this one is particularly hilarious.

Can you explain what "GOP surge" you're referring to, Howie?

foxnews.com/shows/media-bu…

I expect better from Slate, but @jim_newell just dove in ass-first to "the narrative."

Where was the "What happens if there is no red wave" piece, or did you just beclown yourself by making assumptions here?

slate.com/news-and-polit…

More Politico clownery, this time from @ktullymcmanus. How's that apocalypse going for Democrats right about now?

Care to revise your reporting, or do you just want us to pretend you didn't embarrass yourself here?

politico.com/newsletters/hu…

Hey @skarnowski: "red wave?" "Hanging in the balance?" Care to explain what delusion prompted you to write that?

Dems swept the state. Do you expect us to continue trusting you after you so spectacularly failed your readers?

wfmj.com/story/47624544…

Look at how @RachelFrazin puts the cart before the horse is even born.

"Will take on energy?"

How about you explain how you will take on your hilariously premature and inaccurate reporting?

thehill.com/policy/energy-…

Man, @thehill just loves elevating horseshit, but this may be the horseshittiest take ever, courtesy of @KNaughton711.

"Nobody should be surprised" that a hack like this shoved his foot in his own moth and kept shoving.

thehill.com/opinion/campai…

Imagine being so naive as to trust "Republican insiders" in 2022. Is @benwallacewells an actual newborn infant, staring in awe and wonder at whatever horseshit partisan pollsters will wave in front of his face?

Or does he aspire to be a transcriptionist?

newyorker.com/news/the-polit…

Hey @baseballot, your "final forecast" crapped the bed spectacularly.

Maybe you guys should stop smoking that Trafalgar cush.

fivethirtyeight.com/contributors/n…

Hey @sfpathe, viewers would have had a better idea if the GOP was heading for a "landslide" if they avoided your news coverage.

Perhaps an explanation of where you and your colleagues went so wrong would be in order?

cnn.com/2022/10/28/pol…

Gee, @ShaneGoldmacher, turns out your story was bunk and Dems aren't being punished.

What would be an adequate punishment for journalists like you gobbling up this false narrative and spewing misinformation to your readers?

nytimes.com/2022/10/25/us/…

Hey @JoshKraushaar, I'm still watching for that "red tsunami" you promised. Your story is a turducken of misinformation, a collection of horseshit bullet points that have been proven embarrassingly wrong.

Your readers deserve corrective action from you.

axios.com/2022/10/23/rep…

Hey @julianamkaplan, "All anyone cares about" is reporters getting it right.

Is it still too late for Democrats to "turn things around?"

I'll posit another question: Is it still too late for you to apologize to your readers whom you have misled?

businessinsider.com/2022-midterm-o…

It's here, possibly the worst take of the election, courtesy of @josh_hammer's "debut" for toilet-tier "news" outlet, Daily Mail. Who was REALLY "deaf, dumb and blind" in this case?

Maybe your debut should be your swan song.
