In an interview Friday, U.S. Army private Scott Thomas Beauchamps wife Elspeth Reeve, a former reporter-researcher at The New Republic, told the Observer that she was excited when someone at the magazine assigned her to fact-check one of her husbands dispatches from Iraq.
I was like, Sweet! I can talk to Scott on TNRs dime! Ms. Reeve said.
Ms. Reeve was working at TNR when Mr. Beauchampwhose articles described soldiers killing dogs and mocking wounded civilianswas accused by critics of fabricating some of his material.
Mr. Foer has since written and published a 7,000-word piece retracting Mr. Beauchamps articles for TNR, noting that assigning Ms. Reeve to fact-check her husbands work was a mistake.
She is a leftist plant. Do not get your anti GOP kicks from her ramblings. Read who the person is before you drink their thoughts up (or drink their kool aid if you prefer)
