I don't often Twitter search but I recently did search for the term "National Archives" after seeing the street closure in front of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) this past weekend for the filming of Wonder Woman 1984. I saw some of the production set up on Friday and also some of the filming when I worked a museum staffing assignment on Saturday. My photos here with follow up links threaded: https://twitter.com/ArchivesMaarja/status/1007816019874852864 In scrolling through tweets about the National Archives and the Wonder Woman sequel, I saw a number of tweets about the Thomas Lipscomb essay about the supposed "Crisis at the National Archives," which I used in my original message about the benefits of doing better research before publishing assertions in such essays. Careful online research in dependable sources and talking to knowledgeable professionals to hear multiple prspectives may prevent factual or interpretive flaws in such commentary. At best, some of the tweets I saw this past weekend about the Lipscomb piece reflected readers' misunderstanding of a number of government records issues, requirements, and operations. Information professionals whose jobs include working with employees or users on matters that touch on information and news literacy may find these recent Pew Research findings of interest. (This can include how records issues are interpreted outside ones workplace.) See "Distinguishing Between Factual and Opinion Statements in the News" http://www.journalism.org/2018/06/18/distinguishing-between-factual-and-opinion- statements-in-the-news/ . Of particular interest to RM, archivist, and librarian practitioners who work with customers and clients in the academic and governmental sectors. But given the digital aspects, generally useful in understanding readers' dissemination and sharing of information online, as well. I know many library and archives professionals who have been working on good news and information literacy guides, some later shared on Twitter, in their workplaces.
