Their own reporting confirms that she lied but even after several revisions the closest they can get to “she lied” is “she faces accusations of misleading” Jesus Christ, what are you people scared of?

> Jesus Christ, what are you people scared of? Of getting yelled at by Republicans. Fear of Republicans getting mad is the one true emotion of the Beltway class, including NY trad media when they’re covering politics. Comey took actions that threw an election because of it, and he even admits it.

The Dean Baquet answer to this is "well, she might have thought it was true" which is what they did with Trump, and it's what they do because they're a combination of cowardly swine and elitists who think of themselves as liberals but are actually toe sucks to power.

They don't even have to say she lied. She used a story about sex trafficking that occurred in Mexico during the Bush Administration to criticize the Biden administration's border policies. Facts, no editorializing, KISS. But facts are too harsh on the GOP so they have to be massaged in their favor.
