I'll wait while you find one single journalist on the planet earth who has not made a mistake. Just one will do. Have they resigned? No

And I'm saying that new media journalists are gonna have to be very careful checking their facts. The MSM may be wounded - but a wounded animal is very dangerous. They still have plentiful resources - and, after we nailed CBS, they are gonna come after ANY mistake we make, while continuing to downplay their own.

Is that fair? Of course not. But politics is a contact sport. I will wait to see what lies beneath the few facts we have on this story - because we have no way of verifying some of the claims I have seen about the threats that Jeff Gannon faced.

What gives you the idea that any of this happened because of a mistake?

The articles and discussions at un-named leftist sites, sites who are responsible for digging for Jeff's "trash" are not concerned with a "mistake." They are concerned because someone was allowed to ask questions during WH press briefings that didn't jibe with usual accusatory questioning. They were concerned because Jeff doesn't have "journalistic credentials" and clearly describes himself as conservative.

I have no idea where you are getting that some "mistake" caused this.
