Nick Underhill deleted his X post about Rizzi’s interview being impressive. It may have been due to overreactions from X users’ replies thinking it was posted to imply that it automatically means Rizzi is close to being the hire, like the replies in the thread.
That post was from yesterday, but he had it in an article 2-3 days ago so you're right he probably erased it due to being hagged about it, not because it was inaccurate.
