Could somebody help me out here?

Yesterday, our very own skandalmeister, Jonah, linked to an item on the Fox News website reporting that Sandy Berger now admitted that he had purloined classified documents by stuffing them into his pants and socks. Today, Berger’s pants and socks seem to have…dropped out of the story. “[C]ount us more interested in learning what’s in the documents themselves,” the Wall Street Journal’s lead editorial intones, “than in where on his person Sandy Berger may have put them….”

But where on his person Berger put those documents is critical. If he did indeed stuff them into his pants and socks, then Berger is on the face of it a) a felon, and b) guilty of lying to the press and the public when in his first statement on the matter he argued that he had engaged in nothing worse than “sloppiness.”

So what’s going on? Do we now know that Berger stuffed documents into his pants and socks? Or was yesterday’s story unsubstantiated?
