Excellent example of why Americans are losing trust in legacy media outlets. 1. SLF announced yesterday a massive campaign to back Whatley, earlier than ever in a Senate race. Something that the N&O ignored. 2. It's fairly common for major outside groups to shift around reservations to fine-tune things a couple of months out from the election. Against this background, it's hard to see the news value of this post. 3. She left this misleading tweet up and provided additional context in other posts. It looks like engagement farming off of misinformation.
