The New York Times getting panned for its Mara Gay defense, a case of mistaken identity at Vice President Harris’ press conference, and a White House press corps flight being delayed by cicadas round out today’s top media headlines
Some critics are pointing to another example of Big Tech applying a double standard after Twitter allowed ProPublica to share its story of a secret trove of Internal Revenue Service data on some of the world's wealthiest people.
While Twitter blocked users from sharing a New York Post story on published emails allegedly from Hunter Biden's laptop, ProPublica did not face similar consequences despite sharing what could be illegally leaked private information. IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig told lawmakers Tuesday that an investigation is underway to see if it was illegally obtained, such as from an IRS employee or someone who hacked the tax agency.
