letters to the editor. they printed it, frank, like any other letter. there s no sidebar, there s no explanation. and then a day later, they came back with the explanation, where they explained in some part where he had promoted information that was false. my point is, like you said, they had the data, they could have easily done it in one shot. but i thought i heard you say even with a sidebar you re not sure they should have run it. right. and look, this gets to point you were making a moment ago and this is really the big one. this is how donald trump is going to run his noncampaign until it s a campaign, presuming that it is. and every news organization is going to have to decide this on a near daily basis. look, in the response editorial, here s what the journal wrote, trump tosses off enough unsourced numbers in 30 seconds to keep a fact checker busy for 30 days.
