🚨NEW: Drop Site journalist Ryan Grim has authenticated behind-the-scenes messages showing Politico omitted an important detail from its reporting on how the night began that led to the rape allegations against Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner. Before publication, a Politico reporter told the Platner campaign that Jenny Racicot, on the night in question, had been “texting [Platner] about needing her glute massaged.” The reporter added, “That detail didn’t make our story.” Racicot told Jake Tapper during her CNN interview that Platner had “taken something that I said as an invitation” before she subsequently texted him not to come over. Tapper did not follow up to ask what the content of the message was, and did not respond to a request for comment from Drop Site. Politico, in a statement to Drop Site, did not dispute that the outlet was aware of the “glute masssage” text, and said that it would update its reporting if further information arose. According to a spokesperson: “This story is based on extensive reporting and interviews and reflects our editorial standards. In interviews with us and in accounts she gave to other outlets, Jenny Racicot said that she told Graham Platner not to come to her home and that he nevertheless showed up there uninvited. POLITICO gave Platner and his campaign ample opportunity to respond to our reporting and to provide any information or documentation they believed contradicted it. If presented with information that materially challenges our reporting, we will report it.” Platner is expected to drop out today. 🎥 @ryangrim | @esaagar via Breaking Points

@jeremybarr NEW: Bari Weiss just addressed the termination of Scott Pelley on the network's morning call just now. Weiss: "I know I speak for myself, and I hope I speak for everyone here when I say that I'm only interested in working in a newsroom that is built on trust and mutual respect. We cannot do our work without it. That foundation was broken on Monday, and despite our attempts to engage with Scott Pelley and to find a way back, unfortunately we weren't able to do so, and so we had to part ways. We did not want that to happen, but that's the path that he chose. That unfortunate outcome does not discount from the amazing contributions and work that Scott Pelley has done for CBS and for 60 Minutes over the course of his career." She then listed some of his stories from the past season and called them "unforgettable stories."

People are done with the clean-cut types who've harbored ambitions for political office since they were on high school student council and have lived every waking moment accordingly. I call them smoothgroins: real-life barbie dolls with smooth plastic where a sexual organ should be. Think of the telegenic types like Gavin Newsom who never have a strand of hair out of place or much of anything to say (certainly not against the establishment). Think of Cory Booker, who at age 56 announced his first marriage, complete with a made-for-media rollout — clearly on the ridiculous assumption that people still give a shit about their presidential candidate having a typical family. Think of Pete Buttigieg, a politician so allergic to public displays of affection with his spouse that his own communications director publicly called him "the Tin Man."

NYT PR responds to Christine amanpour expressing surprise at the story that Israel and US conspired to install ahmadinejad as leader. Amanpour: “Ahmadinejad, SERIOUSLY? The Holocaust denier? The wipe Israel off the map guy? The Green Revolution death and torture guy who stole the 2009 elections? The nuclear program accelerator guy? The Islamic fundamentalist end-days guy?” NYT PR: We stand by this story, which was based on extensive reporting and rigorous sourcing. The bylines on this story belong to four of the world's most deeply-sourced experts on international affairs and diplomacy who have repeatedly revealed important details about the war.

In his statement, Mr. Rosenbaum said that if the episode “serves as a warning about the risks of A.I.-assisted research and verification, that is why I wrote the book.” “These A.I. errors do not, in fact, diminish the larger questions that the book raises about truth, trust and A.I. and its impact on society, democracy and editorial,” he added.

Wikipedia page: Simeon Stylites (disambiguation) Topics referred to by the same term Simeon Stylites was a Christian ascetic saint who achieved fame for living 37 years on a small platform on top of a pillar near Aleppo in Syria. Simeon Stylites may also refer to: • Simeon Stylites the Younger (521-597), Syrian pillar hermit • Simeon Stylites III (5th century), Syrian pillar hermit • Simeon Stylites of Lesbos (765/766-844), Byzantine pillar hermit and iconodule • Simeon Stylites, pen name of Halford E. Luccock (1885-1960) while writing for The Christian Century
Wikipedia caption: Icon of Simeon Stylites the Elder with Simeon Stylites the Younger. Simeon the Elder appears to be shown at the left stepping down from his pillar in obedience to the monastic elders; the image may also reference a point in his life when, due to an ulcerous leg, he was forced to stand atop his pillar on one leg only

Minutes before he was shielding me under the table at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, Elliot Ackerman, coiffed and dressed impeccably in his velvet tuxedo jacket, was telling me about the Roman Empire. As we listened to the United States Marine Band pluck out "Who's Who in the Navy Blue" and then the national anthem, I told him I had never been in a room like this before. "This is so formal and grand," I said, surveying the dais where the President and First Lady were seated, and the thousands of men and women in black tie below it. I pointed out, extremely eruditely, "It's like, British!" Elliot told me about how when Roman soldiers came back from battle, there would be a military parade.

Reddit post r/Theatre u/TraditionKind9934 • 1d Wedding dress I REALLY want is named Macbeth, and my wedding is in a theatre. Miscellaneous Join So this happened all by coincidence. The theatre I'm getting married in is old, historical, beautiful, and is walking distance from my home. I'm buying my dress from a local shop that has modern and dramatic dresses that are right up my alley, and the perfect dress for me (and the old theatre vibe) was named Macbeth by the designer. I AM CONCERNED about the curse of the Scottish play!!! like, I know it's only a curse to say it out loud, but I'm going to be wearing a whole wedding dress literally named Macbeth by the designer. Do I risk that?? Am I good?? like I don't want anyone to get hurt, or anything to go horribly south, or to doom myself to a miserable cursed marriage Imfao.

Pope Leo XIV • @Pontifex • 5h X God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.
