Watch out for the sloppy reporting in the Salon piece. For example, it states:

“Hur's claim that Biden couldn't remember the day his son died was an outrageous lie,” argued Tommy Vietor, a former Obama staffer and commentator.

Vietor DID tweet that, but Salon doesn't mention that Hur didn't make that claim. Rather, Hur claimed Biden couldn't remember the YEAR (not DAY).

“He did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died,” the report said. (source NBC).
