Why wouldn't the NYT or other media source follow up with the 25 witnesses then?

It sounds like the witnesses turned out to be even more "purported" than first thought.

This is from the WSJ:

The Times later issued an editor’s note and updated the story to say that the female student in the second episode declined to be interviewed and said that her friends said she doesn’t recall the episode.


If they just put this in the initial write-up it wouldn't look like they're covering up the truth, but they do cover-up the truth. First the sensationalist story. Then later, quietly reveal information that disputes their "facts."

At this point, he'd be wise to stay above it.

Most people already made their minds up about it and most moderates have grown tired of what is obviously a string of uncorroborated allegations with zero proof.

Bet those lawyers interviewed those 25 people before putting their names on a list for the FBI.

The person it happened to declined to say a word to anyone. I can see why.

Oh, Lordy. I wish he would. Any lawyers in your family? You may want to ask them what happens after the lawsuit is filed.

What people say to a reporter and what they say under oath may be 2 different things. The discovery will be informative.

It is very interesting that this accusation has just now surfaced.

The childish political games being played by Liberals in Washington are disgusting.

The best part is that this re-energizes the conservative base. It's a great reminder how disingenuous the left and liberal media are.
