      Edward Snowden Retweeted Brian Beutler

      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.

          That is her theory. There's no evidence to prove that. @ggreenwald is making the claim the doc was taken from the Intercept and forged and

          was then altered by the forger, and ultimately published or reported on by Maddow. Which seems WAY more likely than her conspiracy theory.

          It seems her stupid website she released to the public for possible leakers (trying to be like Wikileaks) backfired bigly in her face. 👍🏻

          I believe this is referred to as nitpicking. The real story is that someone is out there trying to "ratf*ck" the media ala Dan Rather.
