Just as our courts are two folks trying to twist the strands of truth to fit their patterns, the newspapers must twist the strands fed to them by various sources, mostly partisan, to fit a story that sells.
You must work very hard to find truth.

I never said anything about a plant. If it was a plant, then I agree with you and Ty that they should not have sat on the story. According to the times, no one came to them with the story, they sought it out, which to me means it was more likely that they had an exclusive without competition.
