“Let’s consider political candidate Fred Smith. Routinely during his speeches Fred talks about how he was shot by someone trying to kill him and only miraculously survived. But imagine that it turned out that it wasn’t clear Fred had actually been shot at all. He may have just been nicked by flying debris. And other people were seriously wounded and killed. What’s your experience as a consumer of political news about how reporters generally react to that kind of news development — not how they should maybe but how they do? My experience is not very well. Indeed, they often press for crazy and over the top levels of details, and when the person knew his story either wasn’t or might not be true. And if our candidate Fred Smith isn’t forthcoming the story quickly expands into meta-discussions of character and credibility.” Like when media demanded Biden WH explain neurologist visits. #trump
