How many layers removed can a source be before the entire report starts to look absurd?

The Associated Press seems to have pushed the limits in an article published Friday morning. Here’s the lede:

A senior Justice Department lawyer says a former British spy told him at a breakfast meeting two years ago that Russian intelligence believed it had Donald Trump “over a barrel,” according to multiple people familiar with the encounter.

So, sources say a DOJ lawyer said a former British spy told him that Russian intelligence told him it had the president “over a barrel” during the 2016 elections. Got that? The AP’s tweet wasn’t any clearer, stating: “BREAKING: Sources reveal senior Justice Department lawyer's interview with lawmakers: He said former British spy told him Russian intelligence believed it had Donald Trump 'over a barrel' during the 2016 campaign.”

 My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw a Russian intelligence agent talking about Trump at 31 Flavors last night. https://twitter.com/AP/status/1035547441431568385 …

A drunk who was throwing up in the restroom stall next to me at that last Iron Maidens concert, the only all female Iron Maiden tribute band, told me that his bookie told him that one of the women he pimps told him that Trump was going to be arrested next weekend for trafficking arms and drugs out of Mena Airport.
