there is no way they would just go by what was in the press at that time without talking to him.
You are assuming that. I posted a link where the editor admitted that they did not get that "born in Kenya" from Obama. Why do you keep insisting even when the facts go against you?
Who didn't get the information from Obama? She said "we." Does that mean the publisher? The fact checking department? Was it the royal "we?" We don't know, she didn't say.
And who did sit down and write he was born in Kenya? We don't know, she didn't say that either.
Again, her statement had more holes than a sieve
