Matt Taibbi is the GOAT
Mehdi Hasan high fiving his fellow propaganda journalists on Twitter today, thinking he won something, is the funniest part of the story
Mehdi Hasan calling Taibbi an “access journalist” is where I busted out laughing. Pot, oh pot, the kettle is on!

PS
Matt, Glenn, and Mehdis tweets will not embed properly today, so I pasted the text above each link.
I love the way Taibbi is so willing to punch back! Matt, you are the Greatest of All Time and born for this moment.
For @mehdirhasan to gloat over two minor errors, while dismissing both the substance of censorship story in the #TwitterFiles and the fact that those stories exposed significant uncorrected mistakes by his his own network, is incredible. I stand by my work.

So yes, in hundreds of tweets and articles reporting the Twitter Files, there were a couple errors that Taibbi instantly corrected. That's how you build trust and integrity with readers.
It's what MSNBC, CNN, and liberal media almost never do.

No, I will not take the L.
A misplaced acronym and a wrong date don’t invalidate the months of important work nearly a dozen journalists, including @ShellenbergerMD, @bariweiss and myself, put in so that the public could see the breadth of a state censorship program. (1/2) twitter.com/prouddemvotebl…

The decision by @mehdirhasan to pull a pure ad hominem interview, with no purpose but to attack me personally to deflect attention from what we’ve found, reveals him to be the latest in a long line of security-state attack dogs at @MSNBC whose job is to obscure damaging truths.

This is completely false. Stamos & EIP worked to get entire NARRATIVES banned outright. Those narratives, by EIP’s own math, had millions of associated posts.
The 3000 URLs he is anchoring you to were sent as samples for censorship guidance to squash millions of related posts.

From the start, liberal politicians and journalists knew they had to attack #TwitterFiles. It exposed the axis of the US Security State, the Dem Party, media corporations, and Big Tech liberals who created the censorship regime.
First it was "nothing burger," now "mistakes!":

Read Dr. Joans whole thread, it will make you laugh!
As I look at the state of the field of misinformation/ disinformation research today, it’s a full on battle.
I see institutions taking a step away from addressing the issue. I see gov agencies backing away from taking action. I see political operatives,
