    Please stop and read this. It’s from the Republican-led bipartisan Senate Intel Report Volume 5. It’s important we recognize what is happening. It was a landmark report and many of the same actors are still active and engaged.

    While 9/11 is still too painful for me to process in tweets, I will point out that those promoting fear and lies about the vaccines, for politics or money, are helping kill as many Americans every two days.

    For nearly 20 yrs, I've been collecting docs from govt agencies about the response to the horrific attacks on 9/11. I wanted to find out what was going on behind the scenes This is a document I obtained from CIA via . It was written a little more than 2 months after 9/11

    And I don’t even know what statement this is referencing. If it’s the original tweet then the entire mess should have caused this to be removed. Having Maria’s name in any proximity to wrongly interpreted support for defamation liability is irresponsible to press freedoms.

    Also would have gotten the right context here that RFOB launched before, and even caused Facebook to accelerate the launch of its own group, actually more of a committee not a board, ahead of a critically important election period.

    And yes, it’s good BF amplified the response from RFOB since they failed to ask for it originally and need to offset the mistake. That’s good. But the Goldman quote, a FB/Google ally, clearly aimed at the original story hook, is also no longer even relevant. odd to keep imho.

    for the record, the piece is now getting close to an interesting piece on the tension between liability for a platform expanding to a free and plural press that exists on the platform. But that story has nothing to do with RFOB at this point they should have just been removed.

    ps if a newsroom gets something wrong with Facebook, it gets scorched by FB comms (normally off record) and loses news opportunities in the future. I really don’t like that this may be getting mishandled because it’s a small nonprofit that was maligned. /eof

    And as always, if I have anything wrong here, tell me and I’ll own it but so far it’s been crystal clear and nearly 24hrs on a piece where they could have avoided by just reaching out for comment.

    And I’ll repeat to not be misunderstood, I’m a fan of buzzfeed. This is unusual for them in my experience. There is a lot going on right now. But it’s a mess and has served to help a company with 500+ comms/policy people and discredit one of their largest critics. Disappointed.

    Wow. After yrs of BuzzFeed building a highly respected news org, I’m just flummoxed how they’re handling this. Instead of saying “we got it wrong interpreting a tweet as supportive,” they’ve added the words, “appeared to cheer” and removed the actual comment which they owed RFOB.

    Apple called the Epic Games antitrust verdict a “huge win.” It wasn’t. My story about why the App Store remains on shaky ground:

    It’s basically like I took one word of a Buzzfeed tweet & wrote about what I thought it meant & used your photo to illustrate the story. And didn’t reach out to either you or Buzzfeed to check or ask for comment. Which would be weird, no?

    see below. I assume you’ll take a different perspective once you understand.

    Good grief, Joe. You just blew all the positive from your harpers think-piece with clickbait garbage? BuzzFeed ‘21 is better than this. You wrote an entire take-down laced with quotes from FB/Goog friendlies based on a single 💣 emoji without reaching out to the watchdog itself?

    You’ve got to be kidding. He literally wrote an entire piece based on his incorrect interpretation of the word “boom” in a tweet, never even reached out for comment on it but found time to go to FB/GOOG-defenders Goldman and Masnick for their comments? That’s absolute garbage.

    Great piece and coverage by w/ insights from and . 1/

    When I was walking manhattan in September 2001, I couldn’t fathom there would ever be a day where America would be losing over 3k people in a day and not being doing everything humanly possible as united Americans to stop it.

    Per NYT, 3,231 deaths were added to the US Covid-19 death toll on September 9th and 2,418 on September 10th. They have the 7-day average at 1,642 daily American deaths from Covid-19.

    A brilliant speech from former President Bush: "The passengers and crew of Flight 93 could have been any group of citizens selected by fate. In a sense, they stood in for us all. The terrorists soon discovered that a random group of Americans is an exceptional group of people."

    Leadership over politics. Thank you for making this statement, President Bush.

    Former President Bush in Shanksville compares Jan 6 insurrectionists to 9/11 hijackers:”in determination to defile our national symbols they are children of the same foul spirit and it is our duty to confront them.” Wow
