Shaking My Head

POLITICO, like virtually every other news source by now, is reporting that Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) will in fact resign after all.  But this is not about that.

It's about these two sentences from the POLITICO report:

The Clintons, the sources said, and their extended world, are furious and want no contact with Weiner. But they are deeply supportive and protective of Abedin, whom Clinton called a “second” daughter when he officiated her wedding.

I'd like to think the reporters and editors at least paused when they wrote and then approved that particular passage for publication.

But then I can't be sure, can I?
