It was a mistake to just simply trust the reporter absent some kind of verification.
It was considered a warning tale or a cautionary tale for editors that this is what can happen if you place too much stock in what your reporters tell you.
You've got to get some kind of confirmation that satisfies you.
You know, here you have a complete systemic breakdown.
And, you know, the Washington Post media reporter isn't interested in that and what the process that NPR like.
That's that's incredible.
It also speaks to what must go on at the Washington Post, too.
And that kind of a statement would make a textbook out of you, Megan, if you did that.
Yeah, and he would be right to be upset if that's what the process is.
I mean, you mentioned being burned by sources.
You know, that does happen.
And that was the first thing I thought of when she was giving that excuse, is that what actually happened was that somebody she knows and who's been a good source for her, you know, blew her up.
And she's covering for that person by giving the story that's so unbelievable and embarrassing to her personally that, you know, there won't be any anybody asking about, you know, a source who got something wrong.
But I just don't think that's possible.
Like if you were going to come up with another story about how it was your fault.
you would come up with something different than this.
Wouldn't you?
I mean, this is, this is just not an adequate.
Yeah.
That's incredible.
