The Wall Street Journal’s crumbling credibility took another hit Monday with an “exclusive” hit piece on Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard that one agency official described as “one of the most disgusting cases of clickbait I have ever seen.”
DNI officials say the story, headlined, “Classified Whistleblower Complaint About Tulsi Gabbard Stalls Within Her Agency,” is a “nothingburger” on a “baseless complaint.”
“Here’s the truth: There was no wrongdoing by @DNIGabbard, a fact that WSJ conveniently buried 13 paragraphs down,” Gabbard’s Deputy Chief of Staff Alexa Henning wrote Monday on X. “Even the Biden-era IC IG [Intelligence Community Inspector General] came to this collusion the Whistleblower’s allegations against DNI Gabbard were not credible.”
