Folks saying they still can't tweet the Post story, and @nypost *does* still look to be locked. What the fuck?
"Save the free press" had enough of a run for some of you, I guess. How long did it take you to forget how "fake news" was minted? How did you develop such a strong taste for your own sacred cow?
