'The messier Platner turns out to be, the more I hope he wins'

Graham Platner is once again struggling to defend himself amid reports of youthful indiscretions that occurred in his late 30s.
Platner, the presumptive Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Maine, waged a dangerous assault on the free press—a bulwark of our cherished democracy—after the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times reported that he exchanged explicit texts with multiple women while married to his wife, Amy Gertner.
"No," Platner sneered when asked if the esteemed media outlets were telling the truth. "The Wall Street Journal and New York Times ran stories without any evidence besides the gossip from a former staffer. I'm sorry, that's frankly, journalistic malpractice."
Except Platner's campaign had already confirmed the authenticity of the messages described in the stories.
An official close to the campaign subsequently (and dubiously) walked back the candidate's denial, telling NBC News that Platner was specifically accusing the Times of malpractice because the paper did have the scandalous texts in its possession, and he was "frustrated by the sensationalization of several private facts."
