Yaroslav Trofimov / @yarotrof: Same author: there is absolutely no doubt that Ted Cruz, born in Canada to a Cuban father, is eligible. https://www.nationalreview.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...
Dan Murphy / @bungdan: Duder has a 2016 article saying only idiots question the eligibility of Ted Cruz, born in Canada to Cuban parents.

Asha Rangappa / @asharangappa_: This is settled legal question. The article misstates the case law. You did not disclose the author's personal interest. Your editor, whom you claim is a “published constitutional scholar” literally published his first and only piece in the St. Thomas Law Journal this year. Fail. https://twitter.com/...
Kyle Feldscher / @kyle_feldscher: Assuming it to be or simply reading the op ed itself? https://twitter.com/...
CavsKermit / @jbkjbk1234: The reality that Josh Hammer still serves as an editor for Newsweek is the best evidence that cancel culture is not, in fact, *out of control.* https://twitter.com/...
Jessica Huseman / @jessicahuseman: Then deal with it's implications: are the thousands of Americans born here to parents born overseas simply ... not citizens? https://twitter.com/...
Ben Smith / @benyt: These zombie legacy brands somehow have the power to drive controversies but not to build any kind of business https://twitter.com/...
Joshua Benton / @jbenton: It is rare that an outlet's correction or “editor's note” about a piece makes me feel worse about the publication than the original piece itself — but this @Newsweek dodge is so, so, so, so, so very bad https://www.newsweek.com/...
Jacob Smith / @jacobfhsmith: I was supposed to be interviewed by @Newsweek this afternoon for an upcoming piece related to my research. I just cancelled because of this absolutely trash response by @NancyCooperNYC to yesterday's racist op-ed on Kamala Harris. https://twitter.com/...

Aaron Bady / @zunguzungu: (remember: newsweek isn't really newsweek https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... )
Jim Swift / @jimswiftdc: What changed?! https://twitter.com/...
Mark Jacob / @markjacob16: I don't retweet The Hill or Newsweek because they amplify dishonesty. They're hack orgs trolling for clicks.
Julian Sanchez / @normative: This is, to be clear, absolutely a crank argument, notwithstanding Eastman's credentials. If people treat it as racist, it's precisely because no reasonable person reading the history of the 14th Amendment and the relevant case law could believe that this is a serious question.
Michael McAuliff / @mmcauliff: @jbendery PS. It's basically the same argument against birthright citizenship made by the guy who WON the Dred Scott case. (He lost it in the floor debate on the 14th Amendment.)
Craig Harrington / @craigipedia: Great work, @NancyCooperNYC and @josh_hammer. The columnist you're both defending doesn't even understand the facts of Mexican Repatriation, wherein between 300,000 and 1 million American citizens were unconstitutionally rounded up by law enforcement and sent to Mexico. https://twitter.com/...
Jennifer Bendery / @jbendery: Not only does this piece obviously echo the racist birtherism Obama faced for ages, but this guy ran against Kamala Harris for California AG and it's not mentioned anywhere in the piece. https://twitter.com/...
Julian Sanchez / @normative: Are the implications of Eastman's crank views restricted to the presidency? It suggests many thousands of Americans born in the U.S. who grew up (correctly) believing they are citizens are actually not citizens & would need to be “naturalized”. https://www.newsweek.com/...
Julian Sanchez / @normative: Newsweek's defense appears to be that Eastman's resume means we have to treat this dishonest nonsense as a serious legal argument. But it isn't. It's hack work.
Melissa Ryan / @melissaryan: Dear @Newsweek, I have an entire report on disinformation that includes a section on how media often amplifies it. You should probably read it. https://www.rightwingwatch.org/ ... https://twitter.com/...
Craig Harrington / @craigipedia: Here's another necessary disclosure, Dr. Professor John C. Eastman Esq. of Orange, California had his account suspended by Twitter for undisclosed rules violations. And this is the guy prosecuting the case against Kamala Harris' citizenship? https://twitter.com/...
@marthasjones_: I call BS. Academic debates are had in law journals and in seminar rooms. They are made in briefs even. A @Newsweek piece is politics, propaganda, and fear-mongering - nothing more or less. https://www.newsweek.com/...
@deniseshearin: @DrJohnEastman You're a birther.

Sarah K. Burris / Raw Story: Newsweek slammed after editorial column starts a new birther conspiracy about Kamala Harris
Josh Hammer / @josh_hammer: Some of our readers have reacted strongly to the op-ed we published by Dr. John Eastman, assuming it to be an attempt to ignite a racist conspiracy theory around Kamala Harris' vice presidential candidacy. A response. https://www.newsweek.com/...
Molly Jong-Fast / @mollyjongfast: Telling us your racism isn't racist doesn't make it not racism. https://twitter.com/...
Connie Schultz / @connieschultz: Yes, sooo misunderstood. Eastman wrote: “I have no doubt that this significant challenge to Harris' constitutional eligibility to the second-highest office in the land will be dismissed...as so much antiquated constitutional tripe. But the concerns about divided allegiance...” https://twitter.com/...
Kurt Eichenwald / @kurteichenwald: It is beyond disgusting that @Newsweek has allowed its pages to be used as the opening shot of birtherism 2.0. I have been embarrassed by many things my former employer has done and become, but this is the first time I have seen racism appear in its pages. In the *office*, yes. https://twitter.com/...
Juliette Kayyem / @juliettekayyem: Nice try. Even if column is about an arcane 14th Amendment legal debate, you never explain why the “debate” is in context of Harris. The conclusion about her eligibility is “it depends.” There are a lot of arcane legal debates. Why this one? Why now? Just say you got played. https://twitter.com/...
John Dean / @johnwdean: It's started. Radical conservative legal scholars are suggesting Harris in ineligible to be VP. I debated this fellow about Citizens United, when he claimed (incorrectly) the holding would not result in a flood of corporate money in politics. Wrong again! https://www.newsweek.com/...
Neeha Curtis: Let's talk about systemic racism & the people in power who decide to provide platforms, & validate racism.
Soledad O'Brien / @soledadobrien: This is pathetic and you are pathetic: https://twitter.com/...
David Folkenflik / @davidfolkenflik: Even Newsweek Editor's Note defending column arguing Harris may be ineligible for VP is tautological disaster. “The debate... is unlikely to fall quiet soon” writes editor who publishes piece noisily resurrecting question https://www.newsweek.com/...

James Vincent / The Verge: Apple reportedly launching subscription bundles with new iPhones this October
Matthew Ball / @ballmatthew: An ‘Apple Prime’ service bundle was inevitable and should be very consequential.

Lance Ulanoff / @lanceulanoff: Very encouraged by this but any Apple Bundle option has to start with iCloud storage as its base. If you buy a bundle you should get 2 TBs of storage. https://twitter.com/...

Vivian Salama / @vmsalama: Oh dear, this is so disconcerting. “The paper will continue to be published. The company made no promises about a future physical location... Newsroom workers were given until Oct. 30 to collect any belongings they had left in the office.” https://www.nytimes.com/...
Noah Shachtman / @noahshachtman: This is awful. The Daily News was a great, thriving paper, and not all that long ago. https://www.nytimes.com/...

Ahiza García-Hodges / NBC News: Tribune Publishing closes Daily News newsroom in Manhattan
Evann Gastaldo / Newser: Several Big Newsrooms Are Closing
Derf Backderf / @derfbackderf: Tribune Inc. closes newsrooms in five cities. The downsized staff works from home from here on. Until they're laid off. What a sad business. The only paper I worked for during my newspaper career that's still in its building is my college paper! https://twitter.com/...
Eric Hartley / @ethartley: A company with over $80 million in the bank is closing newsrooms. This is a disgrace, though sadly not a surprise. A surprise at this point would be Tribune doing the right thing. https://www.poynter.org/...
@pwoodreporter: Thank you, @Poynter, for writing about how @tribpub is abandoning physical newsrooms in several of the communities our company covers. https://www.poynter.org/...
@journomurph: Tribune already did this before - at the Virginian-Pilot. Now, they're doing it nationwide. What are they doing with the money they'll save? IDK. Here's what I know they AREN'T doing: - hiring more reporters -offering raises to those that remain - bettering their products https://twitter.com/...
Jennifer W. Sheehan / @jenwsheehan: Worth noting that in its recent earnings call @tribpub reported that it has zero debt. This is not a debt issue. https://twitter.com/...
Julia Glum / @superjulia: so sad. I get it — media companies need to reduce expenses, maintaining an office doesn't make sense when nobody's there, etc. — but I cannot emphasize how important newsrooms are for journalists https://twitter.com/...
Colleen Wright / @colleen_wright: Sad to see this happen, but it's worth stopping the bleed. I have good memories interning in this windowless newsroom, like watching the lunchtime pick-up games on the rooftop court. And I will always stan the gyro shop on the corner. https://www.orlandosentinel.com/ ...
Kristen Hare / @kristenhare: Also closing physical Tribune newsrooms: - Orlando Sentinel https://www.orlandosentinel.com/ ... - New York Daily News
@poynter: Other newsrooms leaving their physical spaces, at least for now, include: • Seven McClatchy newsrooms • The Staten Island Advance • The Chillicothe (Ohio) Gazette https://www.poynter.org/...
Lothar / @ltr_zh: Had not seen this tidbit: In a filing w/SEC on June 8, Tribune Publishing withheld April, May & June rent payments for “a majority of its facilities and requested rent relief from the lessors in various forms, including rent abatement, lease restructuring or lease terminations.” https://twitter.com/...
@davidshepardson: Newspapers are not paying their rent: “In June, the Sentinel was sued by its landlord for not paying rent for three months during the coronavirus pandemic. According to an Orange Circuit Court lawsuit, Midtown Opportunities said it was owed about $370,000 for rent” https://twitter.com/...
Kerry Flynn / @kerrymflynn: “Three other company newspapers, the New York Daily News, the Allentown Morning Call in Pennsylvania and the Capital Gazette in Annapolis, Md., will join the Sentinel in permanently leaving their current office space.” https://www.orlandosentinel.com/ ...
Charles Minshew / @charlesminshew: As a former @orlandosentinel staffer, I certainly miss my friends and co-workers, but I will never miss that building. I do hope that when things return to normal, the Sentinel will have a place in Orlando to have a presence in the community https://www.orlandosentinel.com/ ...
Monivette Cordeiro / @monivettec: I'm going to miss this windowless hunk 😭 Orlando Sentinel to leave downtown office building after 69 years https://www.orlandosentinel.com/ ...
@pwoodreporter: Our sister paper in Florida, @orlandosentinel, is losing its newsroom, too: https://www.orlandosentinel.com/ ...

Ari Fleischer / @arifleischer: “could you imagine what the nightly reaction on CNN and MSNBC would be if Mike Pence's former spokesperson was censoring Joe Biden's tweets during a presidential election? I have no doubt Democrats would be calling for congressional hearings.” https://www.nationalreview.com/ ...
David Harsanyi / National Review: Kamala Harris's Former Press Secretary Is the Face of Twitter Censorship
Brandon / @bborrman: Just to make this clear, spokespeople at Twitter don't make enforcement decisions. They aren't involved in the review process. They share the decisions with the public and answer questions.
Brandon / @bborrman: This piece is completely factually inaccurate. He is a spokesperson and plays no role in enforcement decisions. The article is wrong, full stop, and it's deeply disappointing that @NRO never so much as called to fact check it knowing it would put my colleague in the spotlight. https://twitter.com/...
Dell Cameron / @dellcam: This is the update. Newsweek's opinion editor, @josh_hammer, shares a coby w/ @NancyCooperNYC defending the birtherism oped. Neither is apparently taking responsibility for this blatant conflict of interest 👇and the utter failure of Hammer to properly vet Eastman. https://twitter.com/...
Dell Cameron / @dellcam: Newsweek had to update its racist oped to note the author was defeated in an election that Kamala Harris won. The update was added 12 hours after publication. Newsweek's editor 👇 penned a defense of the oped, which doesn't bother to mention this. https://twitter.com/...
Dell Cameron / @dellcam: Newsweek is a very different publication than it was even just a decade ago. It's standards are a joke and its name carries no weight in the industry. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Dell Cameron / @dellcam: More than 12 hours after issuing a correction, the @NationalReview is still running a story on its site claiming one person at Twitter, who used to work for Kamala Harris, decides which Trump tweets get fact-checked. That's not his job and no single person at Twitter does that.
Tom Jones / Poynter: These comments are controversial, irresponsible, troubling and over the line — even for Judge Jeanine Pirro
Dell Cameron / @dellcam: Unsurprisingly, Ari, a Fox News contributor trafficking in disinformation, hasn't bothered to delete this tweet or reply w/ a correction. The headline of the NR story is still 100% false (as noted by the correx at the bottom). The tweet has over 7k retweets. https://twitter.com/...
@larakate: @AriFleischer Hey Ari! Nick is actually on our comms team — much like your former job. He does not make policy decisions. I would expect communications professionals to check stories like this before sharing them so broadly.
Alex Kantrowitz / @kantrowitz: This story demonstrates an embarrassing lack of comprehension of the way Twitter works https://www.nationalreview.com/ ...
Jenna Golden / @jigolden: “To be clear, Pacilio has worked at Twitter for nearly six years; only his duties have nothing to do with fact-checking the president, or anyone else, according to Twitter, where Pacilio works as a top spokesman.” https://gizmodo.com/...
Ben Collins / @oneunderscore__: The guy personally overriding policy to remove fake news flags from conservative posts at Facebook was George W. Bush's policy advisor for eight years, so, yes, I can imagine. https://twitter.com/...
Andrew Couts / @andrewcouts: in which @dellcam reports on how the bullshit sausage is made https://gizmodo.com/...
Ben Collins / @oneunderscore__: Also, this story is fundamentally incorrect. That's not how stuff gets removed at Twitter. There's a team of people doing this. This is the second story I've read in a few of months claiming a single guy at Twitter makes these decisions. Both were wrong. https://www.nationalreview.com/ ...
Dell Cameron / @dellcam: I just spoke to Twitter. This tweet is their official statement: https://twitter.com/...
Ken Yeung / @thekenyeung: I mean, how dare Nick Pacilio not have the foresight to know all of this before joining Twitter? The optics! Heavens! https://gizmodo.com/... via @gizmodo https://twitter.com/...
Cristiano Lima / @viacristiano: This article, which is making the rounds, is incorrect. @NickPacilio is not “in charge of deciding what the president of the United States can and can't say on Twitter to his 85 million followers.” He's a Twitter spox https://www.nationalreview.com/ ...
Liz Kelley / @lizkelley: “In fact, Pacilio is a spokesperson. That's literally his job.” https://gizmodo.com/...
Alex Kotch / @alexkotch: Ok this is hilarious. The evolution of the rightwing media brain: 1. Twitter spox tweets that his company removed a Trump tweet. 2. Federalist co-founder quotes tweet, thinks the spox made this decision. 3. Ex-Federalist editor uses Davis' false tweet as basis for NRO story 😂 https://twitter.com/...
Sean Czarnecki / @seanmczarnecki: I'll expand further. Here are my thoughts: https://www.youtube.com/...
Sean Czarnecki / @seanmczarnecki: Enough has been tweeted about this already but here's my two cents: Twitter spokespeople do not police speech on its platform. https://twitter.com/...
Bill Grueskin / @bgrueskin: @Larakate @mathewi @AriFleischer Fleischer isn't too skilled at checking things (eg pretexts for foreign wars)
Siobhan Murphy / @siobhan: “Lies about Pacilio's fake job responsibilities, which have gone viral online thanks to conservative writers at the Daily Caller and the National Review, are pretty easy to debunk.” https://gizmodo.com/...
Alex Kantrowitz / @kantrowitz: And it's written off a bad faith tweet that apparently didn't merit an ounce of research. This is the type of shit you retract.
Kirstine Stewart / @kirstinestewart: Both these publications know full well the role of a comms lead. This is no mistake - it's a blatant, personal and unwarranted attack. National Review, Daily Caller Help Publicize Lies About Former Kamala Harris Staffer https://gizmodo.com/... via @gizmodo
Alex Byers / @byersalex: Unbelievably lazy failure to do basic research, or purposeful bad-faith effort designed to spread falsehood? You decide! https://twitter.com/...
Dell Cameron / @dellcam: The @DailyCaller has now also altered its week-old headline about @NickPacilio, who has been working at Twitter for almost 6 years. The Caller had reported he was just hired (because its reporters apparently can't, or won't, Google) https://twitter.com/...
Brandon / @bborrman: Ari, he's a spokesperson. The article is 100% incorrect. He has nothing to do with enforcement. You're RTing completely fabricated information. https://twitter.com/...
Cristiano Lima / @viacristiano: Update: NRO has rewritten this headline and added quite a footnote correcting the error https://www.nationalreview.com/ ... https://twitter.com/...
Menotti Minutillo / @44: @Kantrowitz the correction is as bad https://twitter.com/...
Dell Cameron / @dellcam: Here's the @DailyCaller story by @VAKruta from Saturday. The lede says Nick Pacilio was just hired. Kruta also cites @seanmdav as her source: https://web.archive.org/... Again, Twitter says Pacilio has been working at Twitter for OVER FIVE YEARS. https://twitter.com/...
Ari Fleischer / @arifleischer: NR has updated its story. They removed the line below, which I quoted from their story, and added this note: “Twitter says Pacilio isn't involved in the removal decisions himself. I have updated the post to reflect his role...” https://twitter.com/...
Oliver Darcy / @oliverdarcy: Good example of how misinfo quickly spreads. While the National Review article now has a (weak) correx attached to it, the misinfo has already reverberated across the right-wing media universe, amassing thousands of retweets as big figures like Ari share. https://twitter.com/...

Steve Capus / @stevecapus: The @USAGMgov executives fired today and network officials let go weeks ago are some of the finest professionals I've worried with in my three + decades in journalism. With Trump, it's par for the course: scientists, public health officials, prosecutors all sidelined.
