No, AP - Democrats don't "say" McCain said he'd talk to Hamas, McCain said it himself on camera

Come on, guys. Stop with the sophomoric he-said-she-said crap. You have the video from Sky News of McCain saying we should talk to Hamas. Just quote the damn video, it's posted below. It's a fact what McCain said. Don't write that Democrats "say," or Jamie Ruben says, that McCain said x y and z. McCain SAID it. You have the proof. Stop presenting facts as allegations, out of some twisted desire to be fair. You're not being fair, you're not being a journalist, when you quote lies you know to be untrue, or when you quote truths that you pretend are unconfirmed. Do your damn job. It's nuance, to be sure, but it's the difference between a reader walking away with "well, a Democrat claimed that, so it's probably not true" and a reader saying "wow, there's video, McCain must have actually said that."
