Trump turns everything he touches to shit, and this entire episode was a disgrace and an affront to every parent who’s trying to teach sportsmanship to their kids. But Flo Balogun has handled himself with dignity and integrity throughout, and that should be remembered.

This is about discovery, yes, when you get down to it. But it's also about them not understanding how real journalism, as opposed to influencer vibescasting, works. Serious outlets like the Atlantic don't publish pieces like this without rigorous, relentless fact-checking and legal reviews.
