But it shouldn't have been plausible in the first place. Wexell basically tweeted something he heard from someone else-I'm guessing. Because he never said he heard Snyder, just Snyder said it. And if Snyder never even spoke, where did Wexell hear it from? I'm all for not revealing sources, but what he did-and what others did running with it-is unfortunate to say the least.
