This is somebody who's talking into a recording device, which is to say, like, Miles Garrett.

All of us may be claiming to have not said something that would get us in trouble later.

But I do think the reality is we need to draw lines around, hey, I think there's something to the craft of this, to the intentionality of this, and trying to report something that other people don't want you to report.

I think that means something.

i'm sorry for now i i i have to cell phones in the ringing all of the time like it okay uh... look at i i think that on some level uh... the word news breaker is a vocabulary where we just got change like is this actually news are you actually breaking it uh... are you being fed this by an agent or by league source and by the way if you use an anonymous source so do i that's cool i do think it's worth sort of wondering why do you need to use this

You know, I think there's some justification, perhaps, if there is some threat to someone's security or the sensitivity of an investigation.

I think anonymous sources are incredibly important.

But the whole idea of league source tells me that sixth man on the Minnesota Timberwolves is going to get a contract extension.

I'm like, I don't think we need to deep throat this one.

Hmm.

I think you might be able to even say who's telling you this and why in a way that is perhaps inconvenient for the... What's the way I want to put this?

The theater of news as opposed to the actual breaking of it.

I'm sorry.

What did Nas Reed do to you, Pablo?

I've been trying to balance something like a serious journalistic identity.

And this guy with the Dr. Doom mask is just yelling at me.

There's a metaphor in that hat.

I think there's a metaphor there.

I don't want to be too glib.

I'm picking up what you're laying down.
