Norm Finkelstein cautions students at Columbia against using “from the river to the sea” chants so they can maximize their impact by not causing controversy. You can probably guess how the clip ends. Incredible.
This is embarrassing, even for Ben.

In a statement to @semafor, a New York Times spokesperson pushes back on this, saying "the notion that any line of coverage has been ordered up or encouraged in retaliation for declining an interview, or any other reason, is outrageous and untrue."

Fwiw, I have spoken to AG over the past year about this topic & this caricature is unrecognizable. I never usually comment on media stories but this irritated me bc it's such a bs mischaracterization of his views about the importance of serious longform presidential interviews.

Absolutely wild story. A Baltimore County principal was seemingly caught on recorded audio making blatantly racist and anti-Semitic comments. After investigation... the audio was fake. AI-generated, in a plot by the school's former athletic director. thebaltimorebanner.com/education/k-12…

It’s easy to support “the armed struggle” or the “crushing of Hamas” when you are doing neither the killing nor the dying. This conflict does not have a military solution. 100 years should be enough. Enough.
Nothing in here surprises me, including @semaforben blurbing the book. Ben says he learned a lesson from it all. Will others? politico.com/news/magazine/…
To reporters: don't ask about parallels to 1968-70. Get off your asses and talk to the people protesting on all sides, cultivate leakers among police/security/admin, find policy documents, follow the money, etc, etc, etc. Figure out what's happening NOW. Later, we can talk.

STATEMENT: FIRE is monitoring outbreaks of violence and arrests on campuses nationwide. Sadly, we must again restate a bedrock principle: Violence is never acceptable. Colleges and universities must ensure the swift arrest of anyone engaging in violence on campus, whether…
“Can you call the philosophy department and tell them I’ve been arrested?” is an all-time quote.
WATCH: Among those arrested today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. I’ve asked for a comment from Emory on this arrest, no word yet. This video provided to us by an #Emory PHD student. You can hear him in this video. @ATLNewsFirst

I agree with Shadi. As we’ve learned since 9/11, once you securitize various dimensions of our common life, it’s very hard to roll it back. If you think the American university is lousy and safety-ist now, wait till they add antiterror cops to the political-“safety” equation.
This is not good. But this is also what a lot of people on Twitter seemed to long for. It’s easy to be an authoritarian when the targets are people you disagree with. At least we know where they stood.

Over the years, I have asked dozens of anchors who they would interview if they could interview anyone. Far and away the most common answer is the Pope. Can’t believe @NorahODonnell / @CBSNews landed this.
Wow: @NorahODonnell has taped an interview with Pope Francis, airing tonight. CBS says this is "the first time a pope has given an in-depth, one-on-one interview to a U.S. broadcast network. It is a first-of-its-kind papal interview for an American television journalist."
