Why repeat something you can’t verify? Dan Leberfeld

Florham Park – Another unnamed person ripping a Jets player in a familiar place.

I’m not going to get into where this appeared and who it was about.

And nobody else should either.

I’m not even judging the reporter. I have no idea who he is quoting. It could be totally legit.

That isn’t my point.

My point is all these websites that reference unnamed quote stories from other media outlets are taking a leap of faith they should avoid.

You have no idea where the quote came from, and can’t verify it’s veracity, so why write about it?

Leave it alone.
