Disputed The ABC article dated Sat 13 Aug 2022 contains the quoted wording verbatim and the source URL is fetchable, but the byline is "Samantha Hawley and Flint Duxfield for ABC News Daily," not Flint Duxfield alone. Because this is a multiple-individual byline rather than a single author, this platform cannot verify it as a single-author quote.
