It seems to me that that could matter in some situations.

“…This CBS News Reporter DID NOT Drink the Kool-Aid Regarding This Story About the Supreme Court.”—

It’s CBS.
Might that NOT be a coincidence?

I haven’t seen his wife’s side of the story anywhere, and it would be too much, I think, to expect him to present it.

I’m happy to grant it to him. A more efficient pathway to privacy would have been to abstain from an announcement.

From his remarks, it would appear to be throat cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, or cancer elsewhere in the GI tract.
