      Where was all this "deep-dive" before the election—even as these outlets spent so much time on trivia in Wikileaks hacks & other innuendo?https://twitter.com/ericgeller/status/802617876851097600 …

      NYT deep-dive on several of Trump's many business conflicts is well worth a read. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/26/us/politics/donald-trump-international-business.html … pic.twitter.com/Nv1qfhunkS

      Only 65 pre-election stories for Trump and "Conflict of Interest" from WaPo, NYT & Politico. (Some are debate transcripts or about Clinton).pic.twitter.com/pOXc2Zmajb

      True. Also "data journalism" that acted like clickbait—constant updates, faux precision, key details in footnotes.https://twitter.com/natesilver538/status/802272157954781185 …

      The FBI, and the media's coverage of it, probably had a lot more impact on the election than "fake news" or Russian hackers did.

      That's right. It also helped media approach Trump as a negligible chance; which one should never do with nominees.https://twitter.com/EricJafMN/status/802893843343507460 …

      538 was best—at least footnotes communicated uncertainty. However, the faux precise huge topline did not convey it; functioned as clickbait.

      Yep. Data journalism did lousy job of communicating its natural, inevitable error pattern. "Factiness" lulled folks.https://twitter.com/LeeCEldridge/status/802896783663857668 …

      @DavidCornDC Nobody thought Trump would win, so lack of stories on potential conflict of interest with Trump.

      Footnotes correctly said "errors are correlated" or "model is based only on 11 cases". Meanwhile, topline lulled. https://twitter.com/randomsubu/status/802898032958312448 …
