My point in putting this list together is to show that there are no reliable sources saying that Sanchez is or was an escort.

I'm told that later on in the interview he denies being an escort. Whoever put this clip up has conveniently cut it off before the denial.

The Army Times and several other pieces are all based on this interview.

While this source is one of the most direct about saying he was an escort, the periodical fails WP:RS in several ways.

This piece (and several others based on it, most by Max Blumenthal) is an opinion piece and fails WP:RS.

I haven't labeled each and every denial, but there are many in the archives of the talk page.
