That Pulitzer winner is Anthony Cormier, the author of the “bombshell” story Mueller said was false. Either the Pulitzeris not all it’s cracked up to be or Buzzfeed selects the worst - likely both.
I keep seeing people say this but all I've seen is Peter Carr say the Buzzfeed story was "inaccurate". Do you have a source or citation for Mueller saying it was false? Thanks!
edit: (assuming we're talking about the Cohen Congress story)
“Inaccurate” means false. Do you think Mueller would have made has first and only news comment on an article that was essentially correct but had minor errors? Do you think the NYTimes and WashPo are simply ignoring this “bombshell”?
Cognitive mistakes like this are a form of confirmation bias, sometimes called wishful thinking. You want this to be true, right?
It may well do but we don't know that at the moment. Trump may not have explicitly told Cohen to lie to Congress, for example, but the intent and meaning were clear from his words. Saying "he told him to lie" is then inaccurate but not false. There's a hundred other scenarios where they come out and say "inaccurate" without meaning "false". We won't know until the full report is out.
