- She used Jones’s real name, Dylan Davies.
- CBS lost fans by "accepting" Davies’s explanation of the incident.
- Only two other people are interviewed on camera.
- The program didn't correct its report, in the sense they didn't put out an accurate version.
- The program should have corrected or taken down its report if it was false and misleading.
- Reporters should never use names like that in that context if protected by law or right.
- If you're going to try and prove a person wrong, you're gonna need more than two people to interview. Both of them have no clue what's going on.
- CBS fan base deserves better than misleading articles about important politics. Instead, they should focus on better reporting.
- I was frustrated that CBS released misleading information surrounding politics to the American people.
- Also, frustration as reporters should keep a false name in reporting topics like these.
- Shocked that they thought the two people to use for interviews were two individuals who had no knowledge of Davies
- Justified reaction to misleading the American people
- Frustration, my opinion is news agencies shouldn't be allowed to mislead people about American politics
- Reporters who violated privacy laws that involved American politics should be hold accountable.
- The amount of lack of understanding from both parties was embarrassing to try and have an accountable interview.
