I can't say.
However the minute I saw the thread here on DU titled 'Diane Rehm presses Bernie Sanders on Dual Citizenship' I stated in the thread that this sounded like the Koch bros work.
I have read reports that they are going to target him, due to his outspoken attacks on their 'buying of our government'.
My comment was dismissed, however, the site she supposedly used doesn't seem like the kind of place someone with her reputation would go to in the first place to look for 'facts' about Jewish members of Congress.
I'm thinking a memo was handed to her, she, assuming it was letit, simply went with it.
She is taking the fall, imo.
I think that this should be pursued, at least to find out IF it was her own shoddy 'research' or she was provided with the info from someone at NPR.
