It's about time the NYT weighed in on this! I've been wondering where in hell they were. They were being PROFESSIONAL about it and actually investigating it first, not just copying her story from elsewhere as click bait.Looks like someone doesn't want to be accused of filing a false police report (a crime).
Perfect strategy for someone who's lying:
On Thursday, Ms. Reade filed a report with the Washington, D.C., police, saying she was the victim of a sexual assault in 1993; the public incident report, provided to The Times by Ms. Reade, does not mention Mr. Biden by name, but she said the complaint was about him. Ms. Reade said she filed the report to give herself an additional degree of safety from potential threats. Filing a false police report is a crime.![]()
Examining Tara Reade’s Sexual Assault Allegation Against Joe Biden (Published 2020)
Ms. Reade, a former Senate aide, has accused Mr. Biden of assaulting her in 1993 and says she told others about it. A Biden spokeswoman said the allegation is false, and former Senate office staff members do not recall such an incident.www.nytimes.com
Glad they didn't go into the whole "Russian agent" theory.
The thing I keep wondering about, though, is the fact that she DID tell a few people about it at the time. The Times found some friends who didn't believe her, but I wonder how many people they had to ask before they got the response they wanted.
Clear as mud. WaPo will probably be out next.
