      Can we stop talking about Biel altogether? Don’t tweet. Don’t RT. Don’t give the story oxygen. That’s a certain kind of well-meaning but inadvertent complicity, not unlike journos’ mistakes in overcovering Wakefield in mid 2000s. It’s the Barbra Streisand effect. Just ignore it.

      Disagree it's the same as Wakefield. The mistake there was giving his ideas significant weight & gravitas. Every Biel piece I've seen has been critical.

      It forces her to clarify. Today was forced to take down dumb headline. that’s s all good

      Criticizing the news outlets is good. Constantly tweeting about what she actually said and I’m trying to debunk it is not.

      I’m not criticizing anyone in particular or saying no one can tweet anything abt Biel. I am speaking to the scale & number of tweets I‘m seeing & content of many of them. This issue can be tweeted abt w/o reinforcing her influence. But I’m seeing more than that & it’s unhelpful.

      Gotta be honest here. I'm confused. Don't Tweet about her but it's OK to Tweet about her? I'm getting mixed messages here. TBH, I'm way more concerned about news stories with false balance failing to portray her and RFK Jr. as the antivax cranks they are than Twitter or blogs.

      Also, I make no apologies for my post about Biel today. People forget, for instance, just HOW antivax RFK Jr. is and how antivax Biel must be if she's willing to join forces with him.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2019/06/14/jessica-biel-latest-celebrity-antivaxer/ …

          Haven’t had time to read this & wasn’t implying criticism of just anything at all written abt her. I’m pretty confident anything you’ve written has no false balance & keeps focus where it needs to be. Like I said, my initial tweets weren’t directed at anyone specific.
