When The New Republic issued their latest statement on the Scott Beauchamp story, they apparently forgot to mention that the PAO of the base where Beauchamp’s “burned woman” story was situated told them the story could not be verified, and was “considered to be an urban legend or myth.”

Now why, in a statement that was supposed to disclose the results of their “fact-checking,” would they fail to relate that important bit of information? Bob Owens has details: Confederate Yankee: TNR: Not Quite All the News that’s Fit to Print.
