      Maddow's lawyerly defense of why her implication was wrong is disappointing. Such caution should come prior to raising alarm on national TV.https://twitter.com/brianbeutler/status/883388968175140864 …

      When the media's credibility is under attack, rushing stories out before checking facts and contacting the subject is hard to comprehend.

      That said, journalism is hard and mistakes happen. When they do, as in this Maddow case, apologies should be frank and unequivocal.

          When we start getting economical with facts, we lose. This important story was mangled by needlessly injected an unsupportable conspiracy.

          Each time the media gets a prominent story wrong right now, I wince. More than egg on a famous face, it risks a generation's trust in news.

          If our most famous journalists are so proud they can't admit to what is now an obvious error, how can they hope to hold the public trust?

          Most folks can't read three different papers every day. If we don't set the highest standard, many give up and say the truth is unknowable.

          With regard to this, I'm not a Trump fan in the least, but the media have been eager to attack him to the point of making a martyr of him.

          Possibly because their job is to report the truth, and the "leader of the free world" is using every chance he gets to tell them lies.

          It's not edgy. It's reality. Your government lies to you, and it didn't start with the guy on the other team.

          There may be, but if you believe that started on Jan 20, 2017, the US Government has a bridge to sell you.

          You said the 2016 election was literally a choice between Trump and Goldman Sachs. You were wrong. When will you apologize?
