    LISTEN TO THE SCIENTISTS (until you don't like what they say, then accuse them of politics.)

    The CDC reversed its guidance to say that people in close contact with a COVID-positive person don't need to get tested. This is not science. It’s politics. Politics that are dangerous to public health. It's indefensible.

    I was excited about the launch of @JesseKellyDC on national radio today, until I heard his take on Double Stuff Oreos, which is completely insane. Should we even keep producing the show at this point? insideradio.com/free/key-netwo…

    Between this and the lab leak story, now is the time to re-evaluate how social networks deal with "misinformation." Being banned from FB or Twitter for telling the actual truth against the prevailing narrative is a scary dystopia, and we're living in it.

    This story is hard to believe. And it's just one city. If we can't figure out how to re-open soon, this is just the beginning. And maybe even if we can. expressnews.com/news/local/art…

    Imagine how careful you have to be about typos to write “not a typo” in an alert about to go out to 20m people.

    I’m often proud to be in business with @JesseKellyDC, but this is the most proud I’ve ever been. He speaks truth to power about the most important issues of our time.

    I love the response "The original story remains available in print." Oh, so you didn't drive to every subscribers' house, destroy their copy, and replace it with a new one? Thanks guys. Imagine how they would treat that response if it came from someone they cover.

    This kind of stuff is really starting to make me question the credibility of the National Enquirer.

    The "they're making it too hard to vote" narrative and the "more people have already voted than in 2016" narrative seem in conflict to me.
