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/clickba
“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).
