Coverage varied by outlet, including national outlets reporting the same sequence of events.[4][2]
- Related video summaries and live coverage from major networks confirmed the trajectory of events, including reactions from colleagues and ongoing discussions about due process and accountability in the aftermath of the allegations.[8][4]
