I used to write for and actually work for mainstream news organizations and media organizations. I was editor-in-chief of Psychology Today for four years. I was an editor for Scientific American. I wrote for USA Today and U.S.

to her 80 million Twitter followers, and she tweeted that my work had been completely debunked and was based on data from 21 undecided voters. I still have no idea where any of that came from.
