as posted by the channelFull Stream
A ten-year old girl was, indeed, raped and forced to travel across state lines to have an abortion. So why did the Washington Post's "fact-checker" Glenn Kessler suggest the story wasn't true? And even more outrageously, why is his piece *still* up at the Washington Post with a totally misleading headline? Actual fact-checking journalists Laura Hazard Owen and Andrew Perez wrote about the story and the Washington Post's botching of it. They break what happened and what Kessler got wrong. They also discuss the new challenges in reporting in a post-Roe world.
Andrew Perez () is senior editor and reporter at The Lever () covering money and influence. Laura Hazard Owen () is the editor of the Nieman Journalism Lab at Harvard University's Nieman Foundation (). She writes a weekly column on fake news and misinformation research.
