Der Spiegel Has a Stephen Glass Problem: Its Star Reporter -- and a CNN "Journalist of the Year"!!! -- Has Committed Journalistic Fraud "On a Grand Scale," Fabricating Interviews and Whole Stories

Trust Your Media Betters, the International Version.

Lugenpresse (add your own umlaut), says JEM:


German weekly Der Spiegel says one of its star reporters has left the publication after committing journalistic fraud "on a grand scale" over a number of years.

The magazine published a lengthy report Wednesday following an internal investigation into the work of Claas Relotius, a 33-year-old staff writer known for his vivid investigative stories.

Very much like Stephen Glass.

Spiegel reported that Relotius, who previously worked for other publications and won a CNN Journalist of the Year award in 2014, has resigned after admitting to inventing interviews.

Now, here's the original source for the story, Der Spiegel.


In recent years, DER SPIEGEL published just under 60 articles by reporter and editor Claas Relotius. He has now admitted that, in several instances, he either invented stories or distorted facts.

Inventing whole stories was a Stephen Glass specialty.


Claas Relotius, a reporter and editor, falsified his articles on a grand scale and even invented characters, deceiving both readers and his colleagues. This has been uncovered as a result of tips, internal research and, ultimately, a comprehensive confession by the editor himself.

...

The first suspicions emerged following the publication in November 2018 of the article "Hunter's border" about an American vigilante group that patrols the border between Mexico and the United States.

Juan Moreno, who reported the story together with Relotius for DER SPIEGEL, grew distrustful of his colleague. Moreno also reported his concerns to DER SPIEGEL. He didn't relent, and he took advantage of a trip to the U.S. for reporting on another story to gather incriminating information about Relotius -- and also in order to take steps to protect himself, given that his byline had also appeared on the article.

After initially denying the allegations, Relotius finally confessed at the end of last week. It has emerged that he invented entire passages -- not only in the article "Hunter's border," but also in a number of other articles.

What did Relotius fabricate?

Claas Relotius committed his deception intentionally, methodically and with criminal intent. For example, he included individuals in his stories who he had never met or spoken to, telling their stories or quoting them. Instead, he would reveal, he based the depictions on other media or video recordings.

That was the technique used by the New York Times' fabricator, Jayson Blair.

By doing so, he created composite characters of people who actually did exist but whose stories Relotius had fabricated. He also made up dialogue and quotes.

Blair did that too. But Blair mostly made up anodyne quotes that wouldn't cause anyone to sue or even complaint that much. His fake quotes were things people might actually say, so when they saw themselves being fake-quoted, they also said, "Meh."

Some of them would later report to other reporters they didn't complain because they sort of assumed all reporters did that. Which I don't think is as far from the truth as the media would like.

...

Among the articles in question are major features that have been nominated for or won journalism awards. For example:

"The last witness," about an American who allegedly travels to an execution as a witness. The "Lion Children," about two Iraqi children who have been kidnapped and re-educated by the Islamic State. And "Number 440," a story about alleged prisoners at Guantanamo.

More at the link.

Anyone want to bet that the made-up stories appealed to his editors' leftwing and anti-American biases, as Steven Glass' stories appealed to his editors' leftwing and anti-GOP biases?

Too good to check.

Oh -- apologies. Thanks to JEM for this!

89 Two part question for whomever can answer it:
1. This practice of the Left getting judges to thwart everything Trump tries to do, what precedent is there for it? I do not recall ever hearing about this before, or maybe just not to this scale so I didn't notice.

2. More importantly...how bound is he by these judges? The SC, yes...balance of powers. But what happens if he tells these other judges "shove it, I'm within my authority as POTUS, come and make me stop"?

91 Claas Relotius committed his deception intentionally, methodically and with criminal intent. For example, he included individuals in his stories who he had never met or spoken to, telling their stories or quoting them. Instead, he would reveal, he based the depictions on other media or video recordings.

96 Unlike WikiLeaks in 2010 or the Russian hack of the Democratic National Committee and other Democratic Party leaders in 2016, the cyberattack on the European Union made no effort to publish the stolen material. Instead, it was a matter of pure espionage, said one former senior intelligence official familiar with the issue who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Posted by: Cato by Phone at December 19, 2018 03:59 PM (J+mig)

It's kind of amazing how it works.

CNN reporters, for example, that anonymous sources at the white house say Trump is a blathering idiot who can't read.

Then someone asks someone at the WH is trump can read, they say "yes, he reads all the time"

Then the rest of the media say "the white house claims Trump can read, which has been disputed by other officials"

Then the story eventually becomes "White House officials covering up the fact that Trump can't read."

(I'm exaggerating a little here, but watch this -- it happens daily. Think the Russia Collusion story. Based almost entirely on anonymous sources.)

...and a big part of me thinks the original CNN story was just made up. And that the rest of the media knows it was probably made up. but they have a narrative, and they're going to push it, dammit!

Two part question for whomever can answer it:
1. This practice of the Left getting judges to thwart everything Trump tries to do, what precedent is there for it? I do not recall ever hearing about this before, or maybe just not to this scale so I didn't notice.

2. More importantly...how bound is he by these judges? The SC, yes...balance of powers. But what happens if he tells these other judges "shove it, I'm within my authority as POTUS, come and make me stop"?

#2. This would be grounds for impeachment. And 75% of the Cuckolded Republican US Senators would happily vote to convict his ass for defying some penny ante Leftist Judge from Hawaii. Even if they agree with PDT, their "Sacred Honor" would require it.

190 Reminds me of something I saw recently related to games "journalism." The youtuber channel "The Quartering," has a startup for a game website that is going to be only games, no politics on either side. The SJW games media hates it. He had gotten a social media guy that had previously worked for Good Old Games to help run that side of things. This social media guy had been run out of his job by the SJWs for their usualy overreaction. Well some SJW site had an interview with him and they wrote it like it was a face to face interaction. The guy at the quartering said it had all happened over text messaging, so their "he paused and thought before answering" type bits were bullshit.

Ooh, I hadn't heard that. What I heard/read/whatever was that the bandmembers were getting screwed on their royalties (or whatever they're called-- money, that is-- dollars, son) on iTunes or whatever, so they re-created their old songs very carefully so they'd at least get paid for those.

But maybe it's an urban legend or I'm conflating several things. I have a 50's doo-wop/R&B CD that's re-recordings of several hits "by the original artists." So they're close to what you'd hear on the radio, but not quite.

And the notion that the President of the United States, who has taken an oath to faithfully execute the laws of the United States, is going to say that kind of thing about his own Department of Justice offended me.

What's wrong with this picture?

Haven't we been told that it's important for the DOJ to be "independent"? So where does it become "his own"?

Liars have tells.

Also, Comey himself earlier said that he wanted the Special Prosecutor because he didn't believe that the DOJ would do the right thing, and he nodded in agreement with Dems talking about the importance of the independence of a Special Council.

It was Mueller who broke down Cohen's door--not the DOJ.

When you are listening to performance rather than content, it really broadens your tastes and preferences.

507 Notice how, in all thse cases of "journalistic fraud," the lies and deception and dishonesty ALWAYS slant one way: leftward.In every single instance, the "journalistic" invents fact to discredit and slander and mock conservatives and right-wingers. ALWAYS.

And let me tell you this, as an insider:

MOST journalism is on this very same "Fraud Spectrum." It's not like Relotius and Glass and all the rest are these extreme charlatans, and everyone else is pur as the driven snow. Not at all. it's more like a matter of percentages: Relotius and Glass perhaps crossed the 50% mark as far as Mendacity Content int eh articles, and thus got caught -- but their colleague are all dabbling in the 10%, 15%, 25%, 40% range of Mendacity Content. And they just lucky enough, and less brazen enough, to not get caught.

And this dates back decades -- centuries -- as well. Most news stories that shocked the world and made big headlines back in the day turned out to have been either fabricated or exaggerated or slanted to some degree or another.

A good rule os thumb is: Unless it's recorded on video tape, don't believe it. And even if it is recorded on videotape, STILL assume its faked, unless you convince yourself the video is authentic.
