This is behind a paywall but I have the article.  The New Yorker story mentioned is Douglas Preston's  2019 "The Day the Dinosaurs Died" piece.  The pdf of that can be downloaded at https://buddhistuniversity.net/content/articles/day-dinos-died_preston-douglas

Here's a headline for Mike Taylor:  "The Feud Tearing the Paleontology World Apart"
