The results of this study are always fascinating. Nearly 3/4 of Americans “are concerned misinformation will affect this year’s election.” Hm. Good they are aware, but I think that horse has left the barn. Also wonder if the other 29% who are unconcerned are themselves bots.
More than half of Americans say concerns about their First Amendment freedoms will affect how they vote, and over two-thirds are "extremely" or "moderately" concerned about misinformation and disinformation impacting the election. Learn more in our #WhereAmericaStands survey.

Oh, man! I love this a lot! I think the other “Arts” need to contribute on the op-ed page before they get their fun-sized candy. 💗 @SLTimes @cullen_art
Peach the Newshound was all dressed up in her top hat this morning, ready to perform some tricks for her Halloween treats, when she started seeing triple Art Cullens @cullen_art in the Times office! 🎃 #halloween #dressup #stormlaketimes #stormlaketimespilot #dogsdays

There’s a glaring difference between @nytimes today and @washingtonpost . One articulates a commitment to democracy and the other is choosing silence & darkness. Big irony in the latter. Bravo, to the NYT, and thank you. WaPo, good luck and good night.

Like @KamalaHarris says, Iowans know that at the end of the day, we all have so much more in common than what separates us. We’re ready for a new way forward. #ForThePeople #TeamIowa

Why do they stoke and elevate every kind of urban legend from 9/11 trutherism to people eating cats? Simple: so we’re not talking about Trump’s record of tax cuts for the rich, manufacturing job loss, and ending the right to choose.

I'm just generally a fan of @cullen_art but this column about a desire to escape negativity and move this country forward just makes me happy. And it shouldn't even have to be a partisan topic. stormlake.com/stories/yearni…

Growing up, I learned to be generous toward my neighbors, compromise without compromising my values, and to work for the common good. @KamalaHarris and I both believe in that common good – in that fundamental promise of America. We’re ready to fight for it. And like she says: when we fight, we win.
