The last time a reporter published a credulous Schedule A story, I reached out to them privately to ask if they knew that model was controversial. They responded saying that they didn't and that they regretted being so credulous.
So I tried with the guy yesterday and he was just like "my story didn't SAY there's no good reason Ds don't show up!!"
No, dude, you just said they "never bother to show up at court." 🙄
