05/20/2005 | I'm not sure about this guy. He broke several stories unflattering to Bill Clinton, related to his sexual activities (Kathleen Willey, Paula Jones, Monica Lewinsky) during the 1990's, all of which were spiked by Newsweek, due to their explosive content, and someone else got the scoop. But this one they break (did they find nothing explosive about this story?) and his sources are questionable and, ultimately, wrong (or lying). I think Newsweek running the story shows a pre-disposition to want to believe the story. That's OK, like who you want to like, but in the context of Rathergate, and the pre-election Qua Qua surprise story, this unfortunate pattern is pretty clear.
