20 years ago they wouldn’t have necessarily rushed the story out in a mad scramble to shout “first!” like a comment thread fanboy, and might not have screwed it up in the first place.

Yeah, I just don’t believe that anymore. They spent the 90s reporting breathlessly on everything that came out of the Whitewater “investigation,” were quick to treat “Monicagate” as an earth-shattering revelation, and then tried to act as if they were victims when the GOP’s house of cards came tumbling down.
