I warn my students about stories that are accurate but not true. Bret Stephens' anti-mask screed today is a good example of that — and what makes it accurate is a brief aside that he buries in order to cover his sorry ass. #journalism #covid My Media Nation post: https://dankennedy.net/2023/02/22/bret-stephens-wants-you-to-misunderstand-an-easily-misunderstood-report-on-masking/
@DecaturNature @dankennedy_nu Just an observation based on anecdotal evidence, but I don't think the Atlantic is trustworthy on matters of science. I saw a tweet by someone claiming a PhD which seemed outrageous. Turned out it was published in the Atlantic by the tweeter.
