Greg Mitchell, Defender of MSM News Fakery, Admits Previous Fakery of His Own, And Then Rewrites The Story In His Own Favor

Confederate Yankee has it.

So does Dan Riehl.

He says Greg Mitchell must resign.

I don't know. I think this is so common the media can't afford to make an issue of it.

Ed Driscoll has found the location of the original article, here.

Basically, Mitchell has rewritten the piece to seem more apologetic than he was previously, and is now stressing he was 19 years old and a "summer intern." This information is now emphasized in the opening paragraph.

No notice that the article had undergone a bit of "clarification," naturally.
