The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

This is an intelligent energy partnership that secures reliable, carbon-free power for America's AI leadership, saves jobs, and supports communities. The deal prevents a productive nuclear plant from closing unnecessarily and demonstrates how private-sector solutions can effectively replace government subsidies.

Establishment-critical narrative

Big Tech's massive energy demands are driving utilities toward expensive nuclear commitments that may not deliver promised benefits and potentially increase costs for consumers. These deals prioritize corporate AI ambitions over broader concerns about energy affordability and grid stability.
