Hi,
The link on "Michael Downey" goes to [ Dooney], and not Michael Downey. I'm unable to edit it myself, so if someone were able to fix it, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Apparently he also earned journalism awards before his death. 88.227.74.109 ( talk) 14:57, 30 October 2023 (UTC) reply

Reuters published report detailing its investigation of what happened [1]. New information could be added to the article from the source.
