I was not allowed into Mamdani's event (for obvious reasons) — but Al-Jazeera was standing behind me and I overheard them crowing that "we had no trouble getting in — they like us"
Overheard in the press line to get into Zohran Mamdani HQ: “Cuomo’s going to sound like the biggest Zionist if Mamdani wins tonight.” Again: this is the press line.

“Chicago style” weirdly that’s not the most recent or memorable example of a government curating their own press pool

there was several conservative media. they got in because unlike Jon Levine they can follow simple instructions

He didn’t RSVP as required. Do you think they have unlimited press room?

One HQ had a much bigger press list! You literally stood with me and talked about how you hadn't rsvped and you'd just wing it. If you had submitted by the deadline, you would've been in. Fox was there, FP was there, I was interviewed by the NY Post there...
