Remember when Ron Watkins appeared on OANN with Chanel Rion in the "Dominion-izing the vote" segment?
Well, Rion talks about how she connected w/ & vetted Watkins in her depo in the Coomer V Trump case, and her bar seems to have been:"he was breaking down the manual on twitter"

Mind you, she was also asked if she reached out to actual voting experts, like J. Alex Halderman and Matt Blaze.
In those cases, she was content to use statements from Halderman and Blaze in her reporting, but did not ultimately contact them.
Instead, she contacted Watkins.
