1/ Here we go again. Giant ass covering error by the NYT in this story: nytimes.com/2018/05/16/us/…
2/ One news organization DID report on "Steele’s reports or reveal the F.B.I.’s interest in them" BEFORE election. 10/31/16 to be exact. That news org was @motherjones/ @davidcornDC: motherjones.com/politics/2016/…
3/ 10/31/16 Was also the day that the NYT published this story:
4/ Now the Times is finally, kinda, admitting that the framing of this story was highly misleading:
5/ But they did so while again pretending as if David Corn's story never ran. I mean... It's only like he's a DC Bureau chief/MSNBC commentator/best-selling author on the subject.
6/ As it happens, @MonikaBauerlein and I just wrote a piece, explaining the timing of those two stories, and how big news orgs are still willfully sticking head in sand about how they got worked. motherjones.com/media/2018/05/…
7/ He who cannot admit mistakes is doomed to repeat them. And that's really important because in 2016, a lot of mistakes were made:
8/ If you want to support the kind of reporting that brought you the Steele memos BEFORE the election and that is fighting to expose disinformation and false equivalency now, read this: motherjones.com/media/2018/05/…
9/ Thank you for correcting, @nytimes
