Does anybody really believe this unsubstantiated and uncorroborated sort of
prattle? The key difference between this and normal "news" is that real
stories don't have to mask the names of the participants.
While it's possible, stupid as our government is, it's not likely that a
legitimate source of legitimate news would report a legitimate story in this
way, with oblique references to what should be in the lead, and masked
references to individuals and businesses likely to sue.
