The article is good, and with embedded video, it accomplishes the promise of its title. Simply stated - Obama pulls Lieberman in to private talk. The speculation aspect is limited to existing facts and balanced sourcing. Concise, this is good reporting with the fundamental 'W's' in tact. We really don't know what they said - this is speculative with a credible and definable rationale, reporting the occurrence of two very high profile Senators. The article uses anonymous sources but in a very credible manner to support the larger thematic mural of this small event. This was not an opinion piece - this was purely a report of facts, with what I feel was a genuinely objective pen.
