At the exact same time BuzzFeed Politics' Andrew Kaczynski was puffing himself as The Arbiter Of Journalistic Ethics with some new rules about how it's now wrong to write stories based on what you’re told by unnamed sources, he was busted cold engaging in a deceit that apparently included editing a post without acknowledging the edit.

As Michelle Malkin's fabulous Twitchy notes, in the past, Kaczynski has criticized others for not noting editing changes. Previously, Twitchy has caught Kaczynski memory-holing mistakes, most memorably after he was duped by ridiculous Hurricane Sandy photos.
