I have no idea what's actually happening in secret. That's why it's called a secret.
@AskTheDevil Or the papers don't really know and report what they heard, which may or may not actually be true.
@poemblaze In the US, at least, "leaking" to the newspapers is just a normal way to say what you'd like to hear in the papers.
@poemblaze But yes, as you say, they may just be reporting what they heard, whether it's true or not.
@AskTheDevil True
@AskTheDevil I was just being difficult I suppose.
@poemblaze I love when there's a headline front page news story about something that happened the day before, and the headline reads something like "Secret Meeting between World Leaders" and then it will say who was there and what they talked about.
Not much of a secret, if it's plastered across every news site, izzit?
