I occasionally think about the woman that Travers traduced in the Isis story. Did anyone ever apologise?
literally no, and the story is still up online?? like literally an entirely innocent teenager getting dragged through press just because no one could take the time to send a fucking email (arguably they shouldn't have been plastering her name everywhere regardless)

The thing that got me at the time is he’d been flirting around the edges of the media/politics social media bubble for several years by that point and *anyone* who knew him with any common sense knew he was a fantasist. That the Times were sucked in was a shocking indictment.

That story is still pinned on Travers' twitter profile, as if nothing ever happened.
