1) Everyone is tweeting it because they were handed it through the pool 2) Anonymity benefits the briefers not the journalists 3) You have a blue tick. But then you know all that
Yes I do know all that. And I know much more. Like anonymity is used as a smoke screen to feed false info and reporters blindly accept it because they’re lazy and irresponsible.

They don't have to accept it, but it would be odd not to report it. If you know that it's wrong and it's just being used to create a sense of peril around Trump you should say so. No 10 spent days underplaying Johnson's illness and then talked up the near death experience

No 10 is a very special kind of evil - often colluding with the press to spread misinfo. The Trump admin has only an adversarial relationship with media. Comparing apples and dinosaurs.
