16. That reporter should be ashamed of himself

where's the accountability?

The point was great that this number would have been more agents than they had on the Oklahoma City bombing. Maybe the absurd number should have set off the sensors of such a veteran reporter???

Frankly, when I read the initial WaPo piece, both my legal and journalistic training immediately honed in on the line they featured on MSNBC tonight: "according to a lawmaker."

That's really shoddy reporting - when you miss by that much - not good.
