Senate hearing dispute over alleged Atlanta Hawks game attendance

Several shows discussed Senator Eric Schmidt questioning former special counsel Jack Smith about whether he attended a Warriors-Hawks game in Atlanta on February 3, 2024, using text messages as alleged evidence.[1][2][3]

On The Bulwark Daily, Tim Miller and Joshua Barone argued that even if Smith had attended the game, it proved nothing about a conspiracy involving Fani Willis.[4]

Letters from an American reported that Smith appeared confused, said he did not recall going to Atlanta, and allowed that he might have passed through its airport.[5]

Other shows replayed or described the exchange, including claims that Smith denied attending while recalling a University of Maryland basketball game instead.[6][2][7]

The Bill Simmons Podcast discussed the Hawks separately as a basketball team, with Kirk Goldsberry calling a frontcourt move an upgrade and Bill Simmons questioning whether a center should earn $40 million annually.[8]
