• Taylor Farms contacts White House seeking delay of cyclospora recall announcement — Taylor Farms representatives contacted the White House requesting a delay in the government's public announcement linking the company to a multi-state cyclospora outbreak affecting thousands.

• New York Post published false headline about 9/11 families petition against Mayor Mamdani — On July 26, the New York Post published a front-page headline claiming "Thousands of 9/11 families demand Mamdani be banned from 25th-Anniversary," reporting 3,515 signatures "most from victims' family members." The online version stated 1,100 signatures "including from at least 300 victims' families." Petition organizer Giovanni Galante later admitted to Popular Information that he maintained no list of victims' families and the 300 figure was an unsubstantiated estimate. The New York Post did not issue a correction but instead quietly edited the article a third time on July 28, attributing inflated estimates (3,000–7,500) to Galante rather than reporting them as fact.
• New York Post publishes unsubstantiated claim about 9/11 families petition against Mamdani — The New York Post ran a front-page story claiming "thousands of 9/11 families" demanded that New York City Council Member Zohran Mamdani be banned from the 25th-anniversary 9/11 commemoration. The article cited a Change.org petition with 1,100+ signatures, claiming "at least 300" were from victims' families. Upon investigation by Popular Information, petition organizer Giovanni Galante admitted there was no verified list of family members and the "300" figure was an unsubstantiated estimate based on assumed social-network spread. As of reporting, nearly 16,000 people had signed; Change.org verified only that signatures came from "real people," not that signatories were 9/11 family members. The story went viral on right-wing media and was amplified by Fox News before being partially corrected by CBS News.
• New York Post concealed correction through silent article edits — After Popular Information revealed the falsity of the petition numbers on July 28, the New York Post did not issue a public correction. Instead, on July 28 at 3:20 PM, the article was altered to attribute inflated estimates (3,000–7,500 victims' family signers) to Galante as his "estimate" rather than presenting them as verified fact. This edit occurred less than 24 hours after Galante admitted to Popular Information that he had no list and his original 300 figure was speculative. The New York Post did not respond to requests for comment about the silent edits.

The signs are to notify visitors that museum exhibits require renovation and direct them to alternative sources for American history information.

• Major media outlets omitted Kushner's financial conflicts from nuclear deal coverage — Nearly all major media coverage of the U.S.-Saudi nuclear agreement ignored Jared Kushner's financial conflicts of interest, including articles by the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, AP, and CNN. As of July 23, 2026, Popular Information identified only one article from a prominent outlet (Mediaite) mentioning Kushner's funding from the Saudi sovereign wealth fund. The New York Times explained how the deal broke precedent but did not examine Trump's unprecedented relationship with Saudi Arabia through Kushner. This pattern follows April 2026 reporting showing that in 202 articles about Kushner's role in Iran negotiations, only six mentioned his financial connections to Saudi Arabia.

• Pentagon removes four recently killed service members from official casualty list — The Pentagon's official Defense Casualty Analysis System website reduced its count of US military personnel killed in Operation Epic Fury (the Iran war) from 18 to 14 on Thursday, removing four soldiers killed over the weekend despite their names appearing in a Pentagon press release on Wednesday announcing the transfer of their remains. Military officials told the New York Times the Trump administration removed them because their deaths occurred after Trump declared a ceasefire in April; a Pentagon spokesperson attributed the change to "temporary data disruptions."
• Pentagon altered casualty figures to exclude deaths after declared ceasefire — The Pentagon reported 18 American service members killed in the Iran war on Wednesday, then reduced the figure to 14 on Thursday. Military officials stated the Trump administration removed four service members killed the previous weekend—three in Jordan and one in northern Iraq—from official casualty counts because their deaths occurred after Trump declared a ceasefire in April.

Three military officials told reporters the revision occurred because the four deaths happened after Trump announced a ceasefire in April 2026. Pentagon acting press secretary Joel Valdez attributed the removal to "temporary data disruptions." The revision supports the administration's argument that congressional approval is not required for continued operations against Iran because the April ceasefire declaration ended the initial operation.
• Pentagon revises U.S. death toll downward — The Pentagon quietly reduced the reported U.S. death toll from military operations from 18 to 14. The bulletin does not explain the reason for the revision or provide context on when the original figure was released.

• Third immigrant death at Delaney Hall; DHS changes reporting policy — Federal officials announced that a third immigrant detained at New Jersey's Delaney Hall has died. Jose Chajon-Raxon experienced a medical emergency on July 19 and died in the hospital.
