    I think the very existence of this article is because of exactly what you’re saying they’re not doing. Just because they don’t go in the talk show circuit and try to make a name for themselves doesn’t mean that they aren’t quietly working with reporters to unravel this case in the background

      That’s a very valid point.

      I would reply though that the article is quite vague on specifics.

      They could be providing verbal testimony to exactly what happened and how it happened. This piece feels like it’s vague enough for the administration to just outright deny.

      If they, as a group, stood together and said “this is exactly what we saw and this is why it is terrifying” it would have far more weight than an article in a newspaper, even if it is the NYT.
