[quote name="skip"]https://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2017/10/slates-david-auerbach-alleged-breitbart-ratfink-te.html He's just handled this very poorly. Lyons followed the "I must have blacked out during those emails" script. Auerbach has been rules-lawyering the definition of "untrue" in a pathetic attempt at deniability and last-ditch effort at controlling his image. I know none of these idiots will say this comes down to being lazy asses and wanting to make their thinkpieces easier to write by sending tips on Arthur Chu's buddies. ("Milo's latest article about Chu's Nazi friend shows why GG is not OK") Unoriginal Hacks don't deserve sympathy. I do wonder how often this happens in reverse. How often does someone from Townhall/PJ media/whatever email a tip to The Intercept to get some drama going? Can't rely on Trump's Twitter forever.[/quote]
