Underhill on Payton

60minutes said

The ironic thing, and I’m not singling you out, is Nick is not offering insight different from Ian. There are reasons for this—Nick has built up equity and shown himself to be very credible without the sensationalism. But I want to point out that Ian’s reporting, at least in this case, was not wrong. Nick would be the first to say that Ian is not a bad guy or reporter—just someone who maybe jumps the gun and like a lot of the national media, does everything with a tad more sensationalism.

Wait, what?

Ian and Underhill’s reports were very different. As you said, one was way more sensationalist than the other.

We don’t know for certain if Ian’s report is wrong yet, but at this point in time, it is most certainly sensationalist/clickbait.

“Ian is not a bad reporter…he is just someone who jumps the gun…with a tad more sensationalism.” is also a pretty generous description of him.

That “reporter” has literally been reporting that Payton was leaving since 2015 (multiple reports across multiple years).
