Fixes applied vs. the rejected draft: 6 link items (was 16), body ~300 words (was 700), Slate retained. Tweet of the Day is the fresh Krawczynski post on Dosunmu challenging Ant in camp — on-theme and verified <24h. The Collier item uses a different source/angle than yesterday’s Star Tribune piece, and I dropped yesterday’s repeated items (KARE 11 slate, Racket postmortem, Lynx recap).
