NBC News deleted a tweet about Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Tuesday night DNC appearance that she called “misleading.” The congresswoman still wants to know what the news organization will do to “fix the incredible amount of damage and misinformation” caused by the headline and post. The original tweet from NBC News was posted shortly before 10 p.m. ET Tuesday and read, “In one of the shortest speeches of the DNC, Rep.

Bernie Sanders of Vermont for the president of the United States of America.’” The tweet was deleted around 1:15 a.m. ET Wednesday morning and NBC News added a note to clarify that it “should have included more detail on the nominating process.
