You can't "make" her, but if the MSM was actually doing the job it claimed to do, it could find out the info from any of dozens of people who know the facts. There are doctors, nurses, x-ray techs, orderlies, file clerks in the hospital with access to the medical records. There are Senate staffers in several offices with knowledge of what Reid has been told. If the MSM can get top secret Presidential briefings onto the NYT front page, they should be able to get this info.
