The New York Times comes in for well-deserved heat on badly reported articles, like the article just before the election in which the Times went out of its way to kill emerging stories on Trump and Russia. But that doesn’t mean there’s not some terrific reporting done by the Times, and a prime example is this video analysis of the Syrian chemical attack and statements from the Russian and Syrian government, which was put together by Malachy Browne, Natalie Reneau, and Mark Scheffler. The trio combined official statements with careful analysis of cell phone video from citizens of Khan Sheikhoun, aerial photographs, drone footage, local reporting and military videos from both Russia and US. Carefully walking step by step through the available information, they point out exactly how they validated the source and time of the videos, and what those videos reveal.
