David Stout: Prevaricator and Court Stenographer

I've pulled the sources used by the David Stout in his NY Times account of 'al Qaeda's' plot to attack a LA skyscraper in 2002.
  • President Bush defended...asserting
  • Mr. Bush said
  • Mr. Bush told
  • Mr. Bush said
  • Government counterterrorism officials provided
  • Counterterrorism officials said
  • The president's national security adviser told... She said
Great sourcing, Stout! Way to dig deep and get the answers! Keep working, and soon you'll be ready to cover cheerleading tryouts for a middle-school newspaper.
