Reporter asked to keep it off the record
[edit]Article says Mechanic used "...mistruths to try to dissuade the reporter...", but article omits very important fact: Mechanic asked the reporter that his confession be treated as off-the-record. Yet she refused to honor his request. Mechanic requested this of her before he withdrew from the race and lied about his illness.
A&E's "American Justice" episode entitled "Hiding in Plain Sight" [1] documents this.
