I’m just assuming it’ll be a puff piece with maybe a small minor rider about how some people don’t like them.

where should I put ["racially charged"](https://twitter.com/DanRather/status/1273647617457577985) on my bingo card

Largely the sentiment I see on Twitter at the moment: https://imgur.com/phly1u2

You'd think this would make them question their priors around any other news story they read that might rely on a few choice commentators. But yeah, that's not going to happen. (Gell-Mann Amnesia for the folks who love naming biases)

I saw that they think we’re going to collaborate with Metz in order to produce a hit piece.

That would be pretty funny, but I doubt its going to happen

Of course, we are the ANTIFA equivalent for the rationalists.

If any reporters want to email me with questions, well I won't have super helpful answers but it would make me feel special if they reached out.

I second this (and I have a blog you can pull scathing quotes from, plus BuzzFeed once interviewed me about rationalists so you’re behind the curve if you don’t call me)

Silly question, but given the content that these fine folks put out, wouldn’t a hit piece be redundant?

I think that's the joke... they know perfectly well that even most positive coverage imaginable would constitute a hit piece.

When/where did the news about the piece originally drop?
