The author first refers to his source as Kevin Bankston in the article's subtitle. This is also the name shown in the embedded tweet. But the following two references call him Kevin _Bankster_ (which seems like an amusing portmanteau of banker and gangster I guess).
Is the author not proofreading his own copy? Are there no editors? If the author can't even keep the name of his source straight and represent that consistently in the article, is there reason to think other details are being relayed correctly?
