2/x In addition to AI and the Elections and the Ramaswamy ad, @sree and I will also discuss how Jeffrey Schmalz turned his AIDS into a beat for @nytimes and a piece by Ellie Kemper in which she annotates a 2008 essay by Nora Ephron, as part of the ongoing #NYT175 coverage. There's also a special 28-page Sunday Times section, #WeedWars by former #NYTReadalong guest @andreafelliott. It examines whether legalizing cannabis can repair the harm caused by the war on drugs, as longtime residents and wealthy newcomers compete to open stores in gentrifying Hudson, N.Y. The full PDF is on our website. We also have two Times announcements to share, about the passing of John Geddes and a promotion for @columbiajourn alum @puiwingtam.

They're building fake news websites designed to influence what AI chatbots tell voters. And Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad? There’s only one word for it. Disgusting. Produced by @digimentors in partnership with @scroll_in and Scroll Global. Thank you to our sponsors, @MuckRack (@gregory) and @graphichisco (@WalterDGreason and @Dieselfunk).
