So what exactly is the point of piling on and continuing to attack when they've said they're correcting? If you expect perfection from people -- and reporters are people -- you're going to be forever disappointed, and forever furious.

Don't get your hopes up until you actually see what they publish. They will find something else to get wrong, then they will say "we already corrected this story as you asked, now STFU".
-
Don't get your hopes down, either. They might do a perfectly good job on the next one.

Fair deal.

When "factcheck" is in your name, is it really "vicious" when someone points out your abject errors?

I think Tapper's expression of annoyance and impatience with the left who was criticizing the story is what got under peoples' skin. It is extremely difficult to believe him when he said he "looked into it" and stood by the reporting when it was egregiously inaccurate.

Agree in principle but media (not sure if CNN and/or Tapper in particular) just piled on AOC for her flub a month or two ago. Would be nice to see everyone be more level-headed but as long as one side holds the other to unrealistic standards they should expect the same in return.
