The Washington Post also just went through a huge controversy over someone claiming to interview specific people for a story and it turned out to be false. Then they retroactively sent some emails after the people complained and tried to play it off as the people in question never responded.

over someone claiming to interview specific people for a story and it turned out to be false.

Wait, really? Funny, I was reading about the UVA fake rape story the other day and this sounds similar to that.

I think it's mostly one psycho writer but the newspaper backed up her crazy after the fact.

This was from a couple weeks ago. I think after this even more dumb shit happened.
