I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, there is no reason why Shang Chi, after a widely well received and successful movie, did not even appear in an MCU film for the last 5 years — how can the general audience connect with new characters when you never give them a chance

Platner honestly ruined his life for nothing. Having so much dug up on you, embarrassing your wife, disappointing people who truly believed in his politics and his message--truly an awful, selfish human being.

[Cassie Pritchard @hecubian_devil]

Like, cool, you seriously wounded one of our best chances to unseat a GOP senator, humiliated your wife and family, made yourself a pariah, and for what? Just totally impossible for me to understand that kind of mentality.

[Cassie Pritchard @hecubian_devil]

I am always baffled by people who run for office knowing they have these kinds of skeletons in their closet. Really don’t get it.

[Emma Vigeland @EmmaVigeland]

This is an immensely damaging allegation from a credible source. The Platner campaign insisted that nothing new was coming, and that was obviously not the truth. Just devastating.

Hi @NYTimesPR, thanks for responding. Appreciate it. I'm a subscriber and I think some of your reporters do some great reporting.
Just to respond to your response to my post:
1) There were no facts "misstated" by me. You cited three examples in response. Only one of them was about specific *named* GOP House members (and it wasn't from "yesterday", it was from a year ago.) So I stand by my post.
2) As others have pointed out already, none of the 3 articles you cited have the names of any GOP individuals in the titles ("Right-Wing Republicans" "a Kansas Republican" "G.O.P. Fingerprints"), in comparison to your original "Who is Darializa" takedown piece. Where is your "Who is Brandon Gill" or "Who is Keith Self" or "Who Is Randy Fine" or "Who Is Mary Miller" critical profile pieces? How about "Who is Tom Emmer," given the GOP House Majority Whip just a few days ago spewed racist crap about Somalis? And where are the Peter Baker tweets summarizing *their* most controversial claims?
3) This isn't a new criticism. Many have made it against your paper for many years; that you go harder on the left than the right, that you even occasionally whitewash the far right. Remember when you had to do a public response in 2017 to a NYT profile that went super soft on a... Nazi? https://t.co/IF6DhTwcrp. Remember when you guys did a softball piece about a far-right, Islamophobic Trump aide's love for cooking? https://t.co/dp0Sf9PQg9.
Oh, and dare I ask: where are the fawning 'Trump voters' in diners' equivalent pieces for DSA members in NYC bodegas? Isn't it time?
4) Finally, that your response to my post was to proudly say you guys at the Times have "been documenting the increasingly extreme viewpoints on both sides of the political spectrum" kinda makes my point for me. One side's extreme wants universal healthcare and an end to genocide. The other side's extreme says Somalis are "garbage" and wants "remigration", mass deportations and white supremacy.
But, hey, "Both sides!"

the fact that she's given so much and has not run out of money really puts into perspective how the arguments against a wealth tax on billionaires are just bs

BREAKING –

US becomes the first country in the world to host a team at the FIFA World Cup and bоmb that team's country on the same day

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Has there ever been a World Cup where a team is playing in the host country on the literal same day that the host country is bombing that team's country?

Violence is NOT the answer. The answer is *opens history book*

uh oh

Chris Rabb, PA-03 candidate, calls out the Obama administration for not prosecuting anyone in the 2008 financial crisis

"The biggest financial theft in history! And we ceded our responsibility as Democrats and as public servants to do the right thing when it mattered most.

Whatever authority we have, we gotta fully use it. When we normalize evil and corruption—if we cede that authority—we're complicit."

does iran have a right to defend itself? does palestine? does lebanon? or is it just israel and america who get to claim self defense as they engage in wars of conquest?

All this Joe Rogan of the Left nonsense from democrats and we actually got one and suddenly it’s “we didn’t mean him! No, we meant a pre-approved dem influencer who will regurgitate establishment talking points.”

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

A reminder that CNN *pay* Jennings to come on air night after night and spout brazen untruths, which the CNN anchor then has to correct live on air.

What is the purpose of this? How is this journalism?

Our media is broken.

Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.
