Breitbart sends reporters to Alabama to discredit Moore's accusers

Klein reports from Birmingham, Alabama: “Speaking by phone to Breitbart News on Saturday, Corfman’s mother, Nancy Wells, 71, says that her daughter did not have a phone in her bedroom during the period that Moore is reported to have allegedly called Corfman – purportedly on Corfman’s bedroom phone – to arrange at least one encounter.”

Why this matters: It’s quite a head-scratcher as to why Breitbart thinks this bedroom phone detail matters. As Corfman’s mother told Breitbart “the phone in the house could get through to her easily.” Wells stands by her daughter’s allegations. But the fact Breitbart is running stories like this shows the extremes to which it may go to discredit Moore’s accusers.

Bottom line: This story is about to get even uglier, if that’s imaginable. I expect more counter-attacks will play out in Breitbart News and other outlets over the coming days.
