We have no way of knowing, maybe he did try to report this story a year ago. Maybe ABC stopped him from reporting it. Or maybe he couldn't get any corroboration at the time. Reporters must always have 2 sources for every story, or they have to keep quiet.

It's in his book now because ABC can't stop him from writing his own book.

We ALL knew (or suspected) this on DU a year ago, but none of us reported it. Yet here we are criticizing this guy.
