This sourceRonson's reporting is the source for the incident particulars — Sacco's PR job at IAC, her 170 followers, the wording of the tweet, and the eleven-hour flight she slept through. Ronson's reporting supplies every particular here — the eleven-hour flight she slept through, the Gawker journalist who retweeted the post to his 15,000 followers, her employer's public condemnation issued while she was still airborne, and the message that met her on landing: 'You're the number one worldwide trend on Twitter right now'.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
