The New York Times spinning their liberal b.s. for their own agenda? Surely not. At least I know posters on this board don’t buy it because i notice how often that source is trashed here

10 years? That fish wrapper has been garbage for well over half of a century.

His daddy had an opportunity to identify which part was false reporting, but for some reason he didn't.

Instagram with 42 likes. That’s putting yourself out there big time. He must be innocent.

So the kai kid was there and now bama has pulled marshall into the lies.
How would the NY Times print an article saying he was there if he wasn't. He stated he had a good source. The NY Times is reputable.

So some dumb a-hole associated with bama basketball told the reporter some stuff that wasn't true and sounded convincing enough to get it reported?
seems unlikely.

There's so much horseshite coming out of bama now it's hard to discern the truth anymore. maybe that's their plan.

One this is true though, miller delivered the murder weapon.

I’d like to see Al.com and their 7 remaining employees sued out of existence.

I’m so not good at it you felt the need to respond. I expect nothing less from anyone so morbidly obese and retarded that they hand select Alabama as their favorite university with absolutely no ties.

What would AL.com be sued for? They reported that the New York Times had an article about Spears being there.

Morbidly obese

Retarded

It’s not material, just relaying factual information.

Miller, Oats and now this scrub have all used some form of ‘heartbreaking’ in their comments in the past week. Do their pr folks not have any other keywords they can use?

NYT wouldn't report this unless they had a source so assuming the Spears family is telling the truth who told the NYT reporter that Spears was there? Was it a police officer? A family member? Who?

The article says "an anonymous source" which is the cheapest way to print a lie because " we won't reveal our source". It could be some idiot on the Rant for all anyone knows. It's cowardly.

On politics/opinion pieces, yes, because those are opinion pieces but in scenarios like this their editor would demand a source that could be verified internally because that insulates them from liability. Anonymous is for the benefit of the source but the writer, editor, and legal team would know who it is.

No major paper is going to print something like that without one. A source can lie to you or be wrong but I guarantee you there's one there. It would be very interesting to know who it is and what their role is.
