That Time I Scooped *The New York Times*…

…and got no credit for it.  (OK–that  sounded pretty whiny, but I think I am going to stick with it).
Yesterday I broke the Donald Trump “conversion” story here at The Way of Improvement Leads Home.  (Actually, the pastor Michael Anthony broke it and Charisma magazine may have posted the story around the same time that I did).
One of the people who retweeted my post was New York Times reporter Trip Gabriel:

Is Trump born again? “I think my fellow evangelicals are being played” https://t.co/TdVS5PJpO5

Gabriel took the news to the pages of The New York Times here.  My post is now, with the exception of my commentary, no longer relevant.
Of course there are no footnotes in journalism, but perhaps Gabriel could have thrown a bone (in the forms of a link or reference in the piece) to a small, hard-working blogger! 🙂
