I don't think they did their due diligence and I don't think it was because they realized it was a win-win situation. I think they were just being the toolbags that they are and wanted attention like they always do. They probably got some anonymous tip (ha!) that it was someone and went with it. Real journalists use multiple sources, they just used an anonymous one and accepted it as truth and pushed it out there because they can.
