Hi Orange Mike! No conflict of interest, I was just reading through that wiki on Senator Burr and saw that the section of the NPR article cited was missing some key context. The article says that the “lol” remark was supposed to be off the record, but that wasn’t included in the wiki page. It ticked me off so I created this account to update it, but I’ve never edited Wikipedia before and just deleted the section I thought was misleading. After doing some digging on the source material, I thought the whole section didn’t do a good job off showing how Burr’s shady stock trades became publicly know . I took a second crack at it, would you mind looking over the article and see how I did? Noice moves143 (talk) 04:34, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
