99. Isikoff could have written the article more clearly IMO. And he too often
does indeed use his sources' language and talking points and doesn't attribute it, just goes along and repeats it as his own. Even if it's bs. Not a particularly fastidious journalist is Mr. Isikoff. But he does enjoy the limelight on his "scoops" that he's handed by people.

As I mentioned previously, the only really new ground here IMO is that Judy's notes apparently weren't home in a knitting basket or whatever, they apparently were in the NYT DC bureau. Notes the NYT claimed it didn't have, if recollection serves. That sudden "discovery" and Judy's continued "chats" with Fitzgerald are of far more interest to my mind.
