I clearly stated a few posts ago that I don't think botch should have ran with it.
Not blaming Joe, but there is some responsibility on him as well. Do you debate that? If so, why?

I agree with you, of course Joe has some responsibility, he probably just got caught up in the moment of it. Fair enough.
But at the same time, Botchford isnt the only one who heard it, hes the only one who reported it.
His seeming reason being that it was his job, and if he didnt do it he'd get 'called to the carpet.'
So now, are the other 19 reporters who kept their mouths shut going to get 'called to the carpet' whatever the hell that even means?
Its a pretty well known fact that they cant report everything that goes on in the room, but the majority of reporters let it slide in order to maintain their access privileges.
Botchford seemingly did more to damage his job/reputation by reporting it than by letting it slide.
