Media Critic believes Maureen Dowd made stuff up about Biden's son

[A Perez]

Clinton hater Maureen Dowd of the NYT is being doubted as she claimed (without citing source) that Joe Biden's son took a shot at Hillary before dying.

"Is the news really a novel? At no point does Dowd explain how she’s able to quote both Bidens. Or how she’s able to explain what Joe Biden was thinking as his dying son spoke.

Mixed in that journalistic mess is the column’s key claim, its ugliest shot—the claim that the dying man, even as he lost his nouns, took one last shot at the Clintons. Dowd has done this sort of thing forever. No sourcing need apply!"

Columnist or not you're supposed to offer opinions & facts not made up bullshit. Not to say it is made up but remaining skeptical no matter the personality is prudent wouldn't you say?
