Yeah. When I worked for The Logan Banner we had an untrained inept Radiologist an outgoing editor hired to get even with politicians his ex politician buddy feuded with. This assclown had no training in Journalism. He mistakenly thought he could learn the trade by reading the NYT.
In no time at all the newspaper was $60k in the hole in legal fees where he got us sued. One of the hallmarks of his stories was the "anonymous sources said."
People would tell him to look into something and instead of actually investigating an allegation he'd make up fake quotes from an anonymous source.
He was a staunch Demorhhoid, by the way.
He likes those too. He likes the wrestlers who come out wearing masks and capes too. I think he thinks they're superheroes. My grandma named him Bruce after Bruce Wayne as he has pointy ears and black mask like markings.
