The New Republic Folds
Bob Owens has the punchline:
When I last spoke with Beauchamp in early November, he continued to stand by his stories. Unfortunately, the standards of this magazine require more than that. And, in light of the evidence available to us, after months of intensive re-reporting, we cannot be confident that the events in his pieces occurred in exactly the manner that he described them. Without that essential confidence, we cannot stand by these stories.
Ahem.
Here’s the article at TNR; it’s 14 web pages long and the paragraph above is the very last one: Fog of War.
