Announced on Jan 23. by Twitter influencer Shashank Tripathi – known as ‘Comfortably Smug‘ – the contest featured 64 liberal journalists from MSM outlets such as the Washington Post, CNN and MSNBC.

The contest was in doubt on Monday, after Twitter temporarily suspended Tripathi for violating their rules on “abuse and harassment,” after tweeting “Where’s Hunter, fat???” right before the Iowa caucuses.
