A Politico story that claimed Trump owes $$ to Bank of China has been "updated" to reflect that the bank says he doesn't, and hasn't since 2012. To be clear this is an "update" that guts the entire premise of the story https://twitter.com/isaacstonefish/status/1254102553148764160
I feel for the journalists involved and don't know what kind of due diligence went into the original reporting. But the right thing to do after the fact, painful as it may be, is a full-throated mea culpa and correction, not what they've done here https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/24/trump-biden-china-debt-205475
