https://twitter.com/jaycaspiankang/status/1821714693444301187I don't agree with those who think "leftists" simply don't want any bad thing said about their candidate, or don't want their candidate to face scrutiny. I think it's because the political press has screwed up royally in recent cycles and has refused to do any soul-searching. 2/
https://twitter.com/Tyler_A_Harper/status/1816890859901641176The call was the opposite of white people getting together for "distinct racial interests." It was built on data from the past few election cycles during which white women were a big source of votes for Donald Trump, and about how to change that reality this time around. 2/
https://twitter.com/froomkin/status/1810684560935620646I'm talking about the Summer of the Shark. In early July, an 8-year-old boy was attacked by a shark. That set off a frenzy in media that didn't abate until Sept. 11. I was in a Myrtle Beach, S.C. newsroom at the time. We had no shark attacks as far back as we could remember. 2/
https://twitter.com/TPCarney/status/1792546713036640370Democrats never violently attacked the Capitol to overturn the results of an election - Trump supporters did, and since then have had help from a ton of Republicans to keep that lie alive, even in court rulings and potential laws. Also... 2/

https://twitter.com/FrankLuntz/status/1771709012003754127@maggieNYT did some amazing reporting months ago, detailing that one of the primary reasons Trump was running for re-election wasn't because he wanted to be prez again, but to avoid legal scrutiny of all the things he had been involved in. Folks need to re-read that coverage. 2/
https://twitter.com/natesilver538/status/1768677005074006337I’ll begin where I always begin. There are only two options for recent voting data about voters of color. Either we are amid a generational voting shift, or these polls are off, and off by a lot. I don’t make predictions or trying to convince you to believe one over the other. 2/

https://twitter.com/jessesingal/status/1762621250113773802Jesse's "confirmation is a two-sentence statement that doesn't deal with the issues at hand. That's literally it! The Atlantic said they fact-check all pieces and got "confirmed" it from contemporaneous accounts from NYT employees. Wow. That settles everything! 2/
https://twitter.com/transscribe/status/1754661305846256012I'll start here. I am in the hospital as I type this. Not sure how long I'll be able to go, between tests and woozy feelings. Why start here? To provide context about how "uncertainty" in trans treatment is not an anomaly but a normal part of 21st century medicine.
https://twitter.com/WajahatAli/status/1753596886118756436If you vote for someone and go along with everything they do, or quietly accept it, even when it is literally causing great harm to those you love, you'd be a fool, a veritable cult member. That's not healthy for the individual, or our democracy. 2/
https://twitter.com/CaitlinPacific/status/1753500048842002462I've had my free expression rights threatened far more often as a journalist than as a professor. I've never had a supervisor/department chair/college DEI official storm into my class and tell me not to teach a particular subject, or in a particular way.

https://twitter.com/wesyang/status/1743096176214245706First, the Yang tweet. Given that we have no context for what's happening in that space, it would be unwise to make too many conclusions based on it. In fact, understanding full context - of a situation, about a person, etc. - is a key component of healthy DEI efforts.
https://twitter.com/kalihollowayftw/status/1742998055643763133Every year, Harvard brings in 24 accomplished journalists - 12 from the U.S., 12 from other countries - as part of its Nieman program to study, work, train, etc., for a year. I was a 2014 Nieman fellow. Following that year, I taught a summer course at Harvard Extension. 2/
https://twitter.com/EricsElectrons/status/1735311154551906496Because of that, I can be in a better position than a white person who just bought two years ago. Do we really have to go through the long history of black people literally being denied the opportunity to buy houses? Or white people literally being given land for free? 2/
https://twitter.com/Elad_Si/status/1732700877595574500I could hear the hurt, the pain, the frustration, the fear dripping from every word, and even the discomfort from other students who sat and listened to the back-and-forth. I let it go on for awhile, then I instructed students to stop and sit in the discomfort. 2/
