[Daily Caller/Bongino Report] Glenn Kessler acknowledged the error following an email from the DCNF. He deleted the inaccurate thread and tweeted a correction. "Rule #1: never try to do an instant fact check on Twitter. I tweeted from a government report, incorrectly saying it was an IG report, when in fact it was not," Kessler wrote in his correction. "Dumb mistake, and I am glad it was brought to my attention. I have deleted the tweet, shown below, mea culpa." |
