"Now, Meek appears to be on the wrong side of the national-security apparatus. And no one can say for certain if law-enforcement officers actually removed him from the building. And thus, a riddle was born. Documents pertaining to the case remain sealed."

So, according to Siegel, Rolling Stone had information that the raid was not related to Meek's journalism. That first sentence is a lie.




"Appears," "no one can say for certain," "a riddle," "documents [...] remain sealed."


So they're not technically lying but are using weasel words to try to heavily imply a narrative?
