Anyone else seeing humour in putting this statement in an edit that was not in the original post?
- tekacs 10y agoHaha quite. :) Was going to comment on that but left it out. Nonetheless the internet is still dramatically better at preserving originals [1] than exchanges between journalists and individuals. Aren't journalists notorious for misrepresenting what people say in those exchanges? Whether there's any accuracy to that or not we can't tell, because of that lack of permanence in many such cases (modulo voice recorders). [1]: See for example the various deleted Tweet archives.
