McClatchy reporter Greg Gordon defended a story claiming that Michael Cohen’s cell phone "pinged" in Prague, which would suggest Cohen lied about his travels and colluded with Russian officials. The report relies on four anonymous sources who allegedly received information from foreign intelligence agencies. Critics point out the lack of physical evidence or direct intercepts, comparing the story's reliance on hearsay to the controversial Steele dossier.

During an interview on MSNBC with Joy Reid, McClatchy reporter Greg Gordon admitted he has not personally seen the intercepts placing Michael Cohen in Prague. Gordon acknowledged the competitive nature of the news business influenced the timing of the report. The reliance on "sources who know government sources" is criticized as a sign of declining standards in established news organizations.
