Politico Reporter Contradicts Own Article on Therapist Corroboration in Platner Case

What was said

"We reviewed email exchanges between she and her therapist, referring to what she called this, the sexual assault, and her therapist sort of acknowledging that this is, this had happened to her. So she wrote basically, do you remember me sharing these details with you? And the therapist wrote back with a general comment on how women should be believed. That's not the same thing. That's not confirming."

In a television interview, Politico reporter Adam Wren described the therapist as confirming Raskut's account, but the published article reveals only recent emails from June 2024 where the therapist made general supportive statements without confirming specific details. The hosts note this discrepancy fueled rumors that independent verification existed when it did not, and the emails came after Raskut began working with media.
