I wonder, what would’ve happened if WaPo just ran the endorsement - was Bezos gonna run down to the printer and shut off the press? Turn off the web site.
I know that it’s easy to say this, but… if I was EIC or whatever, I’d have tried to run the endorsement anyway. social.coop/@chrisjrn/11338000…

But Whisper has a major flaw: It is prone to making up chunks of text or even entire sentences, according to interviews with more than a dozen software engineers, developers and academic researchers.
