I am in the media, on a deadline and writing about you; the deadline is tomorrow.

In the first sentence of an article, you wrote, "Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on Monday afternoon condemned Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) anti-Semitic remarks, stating, 'This kind of intolerance has no place in Congress—or anywhere in American society.'”

That is not true. Schumer has never been the majority leader of any legislative body. Did anybody read your item before it was published? If so, who?

That is not true. Schumer has never been the majority leader of any legislative body. Did anybody read your item before it was published? If so, who?

The odds of your missing the i key and striking the a (with your right hand, crossing to the extreme left side of the keyboard) are very small. Granted, j and n are adjacent on keyboards, but smaller still are the odds that that was followed by j instead of n, perfectly forming the exact opposite word that you meant to type.

What is your correction policy?

Monority is believable as a a typo. The Washington Post published an article by George Lardner Jr., J.P. Smith and staff writers that states: "'Barbarie,' protested Monority Leader Howard H. Baker Jr. (R-Tenn.) 'Silly,' said Edmund S. Muskie (D-Maine)." #7709a

Perhaps the editor of the Post, Martin Baron, can tell us what happened.

Recently in the Washington Post, Aaron Blake wrote, "Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) made the case in floor remarks shortly after Kennedy's retirement: 'Our Republican colleagues in the Senate should follow the rule they set in 2016: Not to consider a Supreme Court justice in an election year.'" #1809o - #falsity

http://www.creditscoring.com/interaction/2018/10/19-cnbc.html

The Post also continues to maintain false information about credit scores. A 2015 article by Ana Swanson falsely states, "Banks have long used credit scores to evaluate customers, but these days potential employers, landlords, insurance companies, cellphone companies and many other businesses do, too." #1510bb - #Myth2

That is horrible. Employers do not use credit scores. I looked into it.

The New York Times distributed the photo caption

Gov. Mario Cuomo of New York arrives to deliver an address to the New York City Bar Association in Manhattan on Monday, Dec. 17, 2018. Cuomo announced that he would push to legalize recreational marijuana next year, a move that could bring in more than $1.7 billion in sales annually and put New York in line with several neighboring states. (Victor J. Blue/The New York Times) [ALT, 2020-03-03]

That is false. Mario Cuomo (who is dead) is not the governor of New York. What is the name of the person who wrote that? Did an editor review it? If so, who? #SyndicatedError - #falsity

A photo caption states, "Gov. Mario Cuomo's speech Monday included a call for an end to the state's cash bail system. Photographer: Victor J. Blue/The New York Times." #falsity

That is not true. Mario Cuomo is not the governor because he is dead. I have not heard from the associated photographer. Was that in the paper edition of The Gazette? What is your correction policy?

Please reply today; there is more.

I am in the media, on a deadline and writing about you and The Daily Beast; the deadline is today.

Yesterday, you wrote, "It pits the fracking industry, environmentalists, the Trump administration, and New York Governor Mario Cuomo against one another." #Error23 #TheErrors

Cuomo is not the governor. He is dead. Even the subheadline of your article is "All eyes are on New York Governor Mario Cuomo as a controversial fracked gas pipeline waits for final state approval. But there's a wildcard: Donald Trump." Who wrote that? #falsity #NY #TheHed

Do not appear on CNN with Jake Tapper again before replying to this message. And, I don't have time to keep checking to see if the editor of The Daily Beast made a correction of this absurdity and morbidity, so reply today.

In your article about me, there is an error in the first sentence. You wrote, "News flash: Reporters make mistakes, but it does not have to b e a federal case."

You put a space in the middle of the word be.

You also stated

I thought that this guy has too much time on his hands. I do believe there is political bias in the media, but in this case he was trying to read too much into a simple brain freeze with me writing majority instead of minority. Reporters write thousands of words per week. Mistakes are bound to happen.

It was not some big pro-Schumer conspiracy at work.

You are jumping to a conclusion -- or are you? Why didn't you publish my entire message? Not enough space? #Error9 #Error23 #TheErrors

This is not about politics. And, false information (and how journalists explain things (a typo -- Pfft)) is a sideshow. #journosplaining

We need a strong press, not a bunch of pathetic whiners. #journalism #freepress

This is about credit scores. Pointing out obvious errors of fact is a gimmick to get through the door. Another article's code contains this: <meta property="og:description" content="One kind of credit check will hurt your credit score. The other won't." />.

The face of that article states, "These inquiries will drop your credit score, but usually by five points or less." #SyndicatedError #Myth1

That is Credit Score Myth 1. Inquiries for lending purposes do not always result in a decrease in a person's credit score. The email address in the byline is in the domain fool.com. #TheCompanyHeKeeps #falsity - #n7038383665 - #1611au

What are you doing about your error in the article about me? #1stSentence
