As we’ve re-confirmed our reporting, we’ve seen no indication that any specific aspect of our story is inaccurate. We remain confident in what we’ve reported, and will share more as we are able.

Their line:
Apparently this is the hill they want to die on, and in so doing, they are necessarily saying that it's the Mueller camp which is wrong about the evidence in the Mueller investigation. This isn't "yeah, but they didn't categorically deny it, so some of it may still be true." This is BuzzFeed saying in no uncertain terms that everything in their story is true, despite the statement from the Special Counsel's office.
As I've said in other threads, the credibility of BuzzFeed is surely on the line here, but so is the credibility of the rest of the news media. If they circle the wagons around BuzzFeed, and it sure looks like that's what they're inclined to do, then they deserve all the shots of "fake news!" aimed at them.
Unless, of course, BuzzFeed is right and it's the Special Counsel's office which is lying.
Which do you find more likely?
Yeah, the statement was legalistic and obtuse. It solved little, but did exemplify the immense gravitas Mueller carries.What is wierd is the ambiguous nature of Mueller’s office’ statement. One would think they would say that the report was largely false or completely false. News reports spoke of some false flag during Watergate. Makes sense that with all the stuff swirling around Trump, there would be fierce competition to scoop on another in the media and thus goofs. But no excuse if they didn’t have their story well sourced.

Well, as Chris Matthews said, just because Mueller said it's not accurate, doesn't mean it's not true.:2funny:
They want Mueller to clarify. If Mueller does clarify the one person this helps is Donald Trump, more than it's doing already. Not sure what Buzzfeed's angle here is. Sure standing by your sources and your reporting is standard journalistic practices, however, do you do it to aid and abet a side of an ongoing investigation?

So if Buzzfeed gets something wrong, the rest of the news media has no credibility? That's absurd.
What evidence do you have to back your claim that MSM is inclined to "circle the wagons" around Buzzfeed?
I have seen all major news media NOT corroborate Buzzfeed, and even some reporting (Farrow) outright saying their own sources do not agree with Buzzfeed. I would be very interested to know what MSM organization has backed Buzzfeed with their own reporting/sourcing...that would be a big story.
I'm at a loss to see how this is a substantive reflection on the rest of media, accept for those already having an ax to grind.

We have watched over and over again as MSM "reports" constant anti Trump rumors and innuendo...passing on a BuzzFeed claim that is completely without evidence is more of the same.
tl;dr.We have watched over and over again as MSM "reports" constant anti Trump rumors and innuendo...passing on a BuzzFeed claim that is completely without evidence is more of the same.
BuzzFeed has no credibility but they are free to present evidence and the names of those who accuse Trump.
They wont.
Um, if the NYT and the Washington Post do their own investigative reporting that indicates Buzzfeed is wrong, how the **** are they culpable for Buzzfeed's mistakes?https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/buzzfeed-responds-to-mueller-statement-we-stand-by-our-reporting

That reminds me - an inch is all trump has to give - according to Stormy.
I thought the goal of journalistic integrity was not to take sides but just the truth.
