I most certainly have been following The Washington Post. Kevin, put on your legal hat. I think you might be a bit more circumspect. There is a very distinct possibility that some of these misstatements were generated by the reporter rather than Jackie or that Jackie could have been encouraged to embellish her story. I would not be surprised to learn that there were misleading statements from both, but the investigations (media and external counsel) haven't yet gotten there. Therefore, other than RS gross mismanagement of its publication of the story, I am not ready to jump to conclusions about the story.
