On Monday, March 24, The Atlantic published a story detailing how editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg had been inadvertently added to a Signal group chat of Trump-administration officials discussing attack plans on Houthi targets in Yemen. After the president and numerous officials downplayed the significance of the breach, The Atlantic published a second story with the full transcript. The fallout from “Signalgate” included Congressional hearings, denials and attacks on The Atlantic from the White House, and hundreds of memes.
This week, Goldberg will discuss his reporting on the breach with Atlantic staff writer Ashley Parker in a virtual event just for subscribers. To join their conversation, return to this page on Thursday, April 3 at 11:30 a.m. ET.
