Yes. Also this erroneous WaPo report claiming FBI found Flynn calls weren't improper. Never explained or retracted: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/fbi-reviewed-flynns-calls-with-russian-ambassador-but-found-nothing-illicit/2017/01/23/aa83879a-e1ae-11e6-a547-5fb9411d332c_story.html?utm_term=.93c242cdf0e3 … https://twitter.com/mattyglesias/status/868259298677325824 …

That is, NYT story may have been pushback against Reid's attempt to get FBI to endorse still unverified dossier.

true, but coming 3 hours after Corn's piece (at a time when journalists were buzzing pretty loudly on social media) pulled out the rug. 1/

also IIRC didn't Spayd's mea culpa directly suggest that they were responding to gov't/FBI pressure not to report?

I don't think so. She wanted more crappy reporting, applauded some bad NYT stuff.

fully agree in general re: Spayd. BUT she does have this line: "In this cat-and-mouse game between government and press, the govt won."

I think Spayd has done lots of damage--and this particular "oops" piece doesn't absolve her nor the NYT. But I found that admission striking
