Daily Caller: We’re standing by our story on Menendez

by The Right Scoop

I’ve noticed that since a WaPo article has emerged stating that one of the so-called Menendez Dominican prostitutes has now recanted, saying she never had sex with Menendez, that now the MSM is running with the story. It’s on every MSM website I’ve been to today. Imagine that.

But the Daily Caller is saying WaPo got the wrong prostitute and are standing by their story:

Statement from The Daily Caller:

The Washington Post falsely reported a story yesterday claiming our source had recanted her statement, without contacting The Daily Caller for comment before posting. In reality, the prostitute in the Post’s story does not appear to be one of the women we interviewed in 2012. Details provided by the prostitute identified as Ms. Santana in the Post story conflict with the taped interviews The Daily Caller posted on November 1, including the mention of a person whose name would not come to light for months afterward. In addition, Melanio Figueroa, the attorney for TheDC’s sources, has said the Post’s allegations are fabricated and that the affidavit is false. The Post would not provide TheDC with a copy of the affidavit, despite our request. We stand by our reporting.
