I've been asking for days for an on-the-record interview with him, or the new executive director.

Last month, contacted via LinkedIn, he told me he would not be doing interviews, but did later put me in touch with the foundation's new spokesman, who has so far declined any on-the-record comments.

While the piece was buttressed with stories from anonymous sources, the linchpin of the story was a very much on-the-record Adam Jentleson, Fetterman’s former chief of staff, sharing a 1,600-word letter he’d written Fetterman’s physician at Walter Reed a year ago.

Sandberg declined through a representative to give me an on-the-record response to the book.

She provided an on-the-record statement which said she "would have been made aware of any investigation which concluded there was a case to answer" on the basis that she "would have been required to organise and oversee a disciplinary process".
