If the article's intent was to let the facts speak for themselves, it forgot to invite them. Instead, Tracy leveraged the full weight of his employer, America's paper of record, to ask an entertainer who sings with Elmo about how to go to school if she would care to comment about receiving money from Hamas. Nasty work.

There's got to be a defamation case in this, no? It's maliciously claiming she was involved in a crime, without any evidence.

There should be, but probably couldn't get any NY judge to get anywhere near that case 😠
