Or that Reddit post which has been circulating widely was the source for Kara’s tweets.

Mmmmm no. Kara is a bonafide journalist. Her sources are v real and authenticated for the things she shares.

[fsckboy]

authentication means finding a 2nd source. This reddit comment could be primary, armed with that it's not hard for Kara to find somebody inside to say "yes, accurate." That is real journalism.

Not according to Kara Swisher it isn't.

I know it's convenient to dUnK on journalism these days but this is Kara Fucking Swisher. Her entire reputation is on the line if she gets these little things wrong. And she has a hell of a reputation

Update: now confirmed by the parties involved

[fsociety]

She is the reputation.

I think the phrasing to the parent you replied to is perfect. "Aligns" is correct. IT doesn't really say which direction information flowed. Anyway, it is interesting how tech journalists get so deeply embedded in issues. She does seem to be pretty legitimate.
