    Woodward also said it “happens frequently” that a source will publicly deny something the source told the author - and suggested authors understand that sources have to. @amieparnes and I can attest to that.https://twitter.com/HallieJackson/status/1039116414777475072 …

    As @POTUS tweets about Bob Woodward, Woodward tells @SavannahGuthrie that Kelly and Mattis are not telling the truth in their denials of comments reportedly made in “Fear.” @TODAYshow

        This might have some validity if those media sources hadn’t been repeatedly proven to report unsubstantiated claims, which were later proven outright lies. If the media wants to be heralded as the ultimate source of credible info, they need to be 100% credible.

        That's the eternal goal, which distinguishes reporters from politicians.

        No, that’s the eternal goal which distinguishes true journalists from tabloid reporters. Once your credibility as a journalist is gone or opinion replaces fact, you are never viewed by that standard again. Unfortunately, politicians aren’t held to same standard of reliability.

        I agree the burden on us is much greater. There's nothing worse than finding out you reported something that wasn't true, whether it's the spelling of a high school field hockey player's name or something of national significance. We're not infallible, but we issue corrections.

        Unfortunately, in this day and age, corrections mean very little. Your original story is out there for the world to see, while corrections take a back page and are seldom seen. Case in point, look at how often we see now corrected reports being shared on Twitter as fact.

        True. The benefit of web journalism, though, is that corrections live in the body of the stories.

        But that is not the norm. In MANY cases they leave the original article as is and post a secondary with a correction which isn’t equally publicized.

        i’ll start to think about maybe believing the denials when i see the libel suits if woodward really did misquote these people they should be lining up to sue him into oblivion

        And they won’t precisely because they know they said it,he has tapes of them saying it, and if they sued he’d just push play. A good journalist will protect their sources, but not if their sources abuse that privilege

        It's self evident. Kelly and Mattis can either deny what's in the book or resign. Those are the only two options. Seems fairly obvious.
