It looks like this guy uses the same tactics CNN and other news outlets use. He has unnamed sources at a hospital he cannot divulge that tell him Benassi had the virus (which she denies). This is what happens when we allow unnamed sources to become the status quo in "journalism". Now crackpots, who call themselves journalists, can make up stories and use the same standards. You notice the CNN reported didn't call him out for his unnamed sources at the hospital (or elsewhere).
