  1. When the Times of London reported that former New York City mayor Bill de Blasio had misgivings about frontrunner Zohran Mamdani's policies, it seemed unlikely, since de Blasio had previously endorsed the Democratic candidate. It was unlikely — in fact, it wasn't true. In a remarkable snafu by The Times, journalist Bevan Hurley had emailed someone he believed to be de Blasio, but was in fact someone else, and then rushed to print the explosive story. De Blasio demanded a retraction (which he got), reiterated his support for Mamdani, and told @Semafor that he had never had an experience like this in 25 years of public life. As for the fake de Blasio? “You are correct. It was me. The real Bill DeBlasio,” the person who controls the email address responded to a message from Semafor, before ghosting the publication. Here's more on how it all unfolded.
