@thebradblog.bsky.social @andreachalupa.com @froomkin.bsky.social @jayrosen.bsky.social did the mainstream press hide from us just how unstable Haley Stevens was in primary? Or is this a new meltdown abetted by pressure from her fiancee? x.com/yashar/statu...

watching AES's calm and confident interview on 60 minutes and haley stevens meltdown on anderson cooper it is once again worth noting that during the primary the political press portrayed AES as the unhinged, undisciplined extremist and Stevens as the reasonable and professional moderate.

Gibney's MUSK film contains no known revelations; it sounds like a solid piece of filmmaking and will shape public opinion, which is helpful. But no one, not Gibney, Isaacson, or any other chronicler of Musk's arc has covered this — and IMHO it's key. washingtonspectator.org/musks-spacex...

When Elon Musk formed Space Exploration Corporation in 2002, he based the company in El Segundo, California — an area rich with aerospace and defense contractor talent. That choice proved to be…

🛑 NEW: THE SILENCE OF THE TROLLS was a great story. It just isn't supported by any real data — just a handful of misleading charts. Researchers tracking actual troll networks saw no drop. Why did so many want to believe it anyway? We dug in... america2.news/motivated-re...

Motivated Reasoning and Confirmation Bias Drive Viral Claims of “Russian Bot” Declines

Warren’s endorsement was a dealbreaker—and a heartbreaker—for me. Staying out of it was an option! Instead, she threw her weight behind him and vouched for him. Because that’s what an endorsement is. She knew what *could* come out and didn’t think it mattered enough.

🛑 ICYMI: Our deep dive on "Dialog," which has been hyped as Peter Thiel's "secret society," finds that it is large and not especially secret — but it is a part of a larger web of influence networks designed to find "heretics" within the world's elite. america2.news/exclusive-pe...

Exclusive: Peter Thiel’s Least Secret Network Is Just One Small Part of a Global Influence Machine

Dialog has been cast as Peter Thiel’s ‘secret society,’ but the invitation-only network is only part of much more significant Thiel-backed power web which draws far less attention.
