@conor64 @wokal_distance @jonathanchait I'm saying that Jonathan Chait attributed a direct quotation to me that is false. You understand that you can't just make up quotes because some other words sound similar, right? — PolitiTweet.org

@wokal_distance @conor64 @jonathanchait I don't even use the word! "Grooming" (abstract noun for a process) and "groomer" (concrete noun for a person) are very different. Not the same. — PolitiTweet.org

@jonst0kes Yes, I actually said that conservatives need to be very careful with their language and pointed out that I discourage this exact kind of phrasing. Some people in the audience disagreed. But I think my point was clear and consistent. — PolitiTweet.org

@conor64 @jonathanchait No, as you can see, the words "groomer" or "groomers" do not appear anywhere in this tweet, nor is this an "attack" on any of my "critics." You can't just fabricate quotations because you feel like someone might have said something. Actual facts are important. — PolitiTweet.org

@jonathanchait And you still haven't sent me the contact for your editor. I've tried emailing David Haskell, but I want to make sure it's the correct address. Email me the relevant info—this seems to be something that should be addressed by your superiors. — PolitiTweet.org

@jonathanchait Just own up to it. You saw a lot of people using the term as an attack and you assumed that I have used it, too. But you didn't actually check to make sure that was a fact and you got it wrong. It's time to make the correction. Just own up to your mistake. — PolitiTweet.org

@bdomenech I don't understand why these people don't either: (a) do a basic Twitter search before attributing a quotation that exists in their imagination; or (b) reach out to me by email for comment or factual confirmation before publishing this trash. — PolitiTweet.org

Amazing: Chait cites his own article as his source, but if you actually read it, there is zero evidence that I have "attacked [my] critics as 'groomers.'" It's time for you to correct, Jonathan. Just own up to your mistake and have some integrity. https://t.co/xB8FXoUysr — PolitiTweet.org

@jonathanchait I have done a control+F search for "groomer" and "groomers" in your article, but neither yielded any evidence that I have "attacked [my] critics as 'groomers.'" Specifically, which critics have I attacked using that word? Cite your sources (besides yourself). — PolitiTweet.org

This is starting to get ridiculous. The Washington Post has now admitted to publishing false statements about me twice, including this weekend. And now I've caught New York Magazine fabricating quotations for a second time. This is why people hate legacy media. — PolitiTweet.org

I have reached out to New York Magazine requesting a correction. Mr. Chait can call me any bad name in the book. But he cannot fabricate quotations and attribute them to me as part of a smear campaign. Even for a man of notably low standards, that should be a red line. — PolitiTweet.org

@jonathanchait Hi Jonathan, what's the best contact for your editor? You've included a significant factual error in your recent piece. I have never called any person a "groomer"; in fact, I have explicitly counseled *against* doing so. You should issue a correction. https://t.co/iGGuH6x4eT — PolitiTweet.org
