Update on Jacobsen article

Link to yesterday's Washington Times story updating facts relating to the incident that Annie Jacobsen wrote the article about. It is being investigated - - please comment only if you read the article, and let's keep it civilized so that our thread stays up. Thanks.

Snopes.com is now reporting the Jacobsen story as false.

Snopes is wrong in this case; did you read the article? The Washington Times is an outstanding news source.......

Leilani, why do you keep posting about this?
I would trust Snopes.

I think the Salon.com article Hysterical Skies was pretty funny.

How does it help the situation to bring this up over and over?

The Washington Times is a completely unreliable news resource run by the head of a religious cult.

For goodness sakes, people, did you read the article? People have been called to the Hill to discuss what happened. Read the article. Read the facts - it is being investigated. If it were false, officials would not be called in to discuss it. Talk about blinders!

Frankly, I trust the Mickelsons of snopes much more than I trust the Reverend Moon's Washington Times.

Are you sure that the Times isn't just hosting another coronation party for Rev. Moon on the Hill? Much more likely.

You have an agenda, leelani. Stop trying to pretend you don't.
