Fake Website Tricks Thousands Into Believing Elizabeth Warren Endorsed Bernie Sanders
J.K. Trotter · 03/01/16 11:10AMYesterday, thousands of Bernie Sanders’ supporters began sharing what appeared to be a straightforward New York Times article—which you can read here—about Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren’s decision to endorse Sanders for President of the United States. Attributed to Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns, both of whom are real Times reporters, the piece was written in convincing Times-ese, down to the headline (“Warren Endorses Sanders, Breaking With Colleagues”), lead sentence (“In a potentially decisive turn...”), and perfunctory quotes from the Sanders campaign and several disappointed Clinton surrogates.

Hamilton Nolan · 02/17/16 02:55PMAttention Bernie Bros: Woo a Hillary Voter With These Exclusive Printable Valentines
Ashley Feinberg and Allie Jones · 02/12/16 05:15PMLike so many trash fires fueled by a mix of paper-thin arguments and Bengay, the race for the Democratic nomination for president is heating up. Online discussions between so-called Bernie Bros and Hillary Bots have thus far been characterized by condescension, profanity, and just generally being insufferable. But perhaps Valentine’s Day could turn the tides...toward love.
Moderator Accidentally Whispers “Oh God” Into Mic When Bernie Brings Up Vietnam [Updated]
Ashley Feinberg · 02/11/16 11:11PM[Update: PBS says the moderator was responding to a producer, not making an editorial comment. Their statement is appended below.] Following an otherwise lackluster (if not borderline uncomfortable) attempt at discussing foreign policy, Bernie Sanders moved to something he actually could speak confidently about: Hillary Clinton’s bizarre Kissinger boast. But as Sanders opened with a Vietnam reference, one of the debate’s moderators—apparently unaware her mic was still on—could be heard sighing in the background, “Oh, god.”
