Who's your source? It's a question I would ask reporters all the time when I was an editor at two different national newspapers, a newsweekly and during my first stint at FORBES 15 years ago. The right source was critical to a story's veracity. That's why I was so pleased to learn that Roberton Williams, Howard Gleckman and Len Burman -- three of our expert contributors -- were quoted 21 times over 12 months by New York Times reporters writing for the newspaper about the fiscal cliff and taxes. I was just as thrilled that Williams alone was quoted 24 times in the The Wall Street Journal. For two of the most respected news brands, our writers were their sources.
