Palmer Report: about Mensch and Taylor
This interesting comment is on the latest Palmer Report:
Despite certain false assertions in the media, Palmer Report has no particular connection to Twitter pundits Claude Taylor and Louise Mensch. Based on their early track record of having been proven correct about grand juries and surveillance warrants, we have on occasion passed along their scoops, along with the disclaimer that these were single-sourced stories and that they should only be taken for what they’re worth.
Based on tonight’s incident in which Taylor publicly acknowledged that one of his scoops was nothing more than a fake email he’d been duped by, we will no longer be passing along anything from Taylor or Mensch. It’s entirely up to all of you as to whether or not you choose to continue following along with them on their Twitter accounts; we’re merely stating that based on this incident, their “scoops” no longer meet our editorial standards.
